Capital Unitarian Universalist Congregation

At mealtimes, Christians thank their god, while humanists thank the farmer.　 To whom or what do Unitarians give thanks?　 Where is the divinity – or the farmer – in today’s factory food?

At John and Sara’s.

Bill 36, the proposed Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act, would introduce a controversial approach into Canadian law by criminalizing the purchase of sexual services but exempting one party from prosecution. Is this a helpful solution? What other approaches could we have considered?

Rachel Phillips, PhD, executive director of Peers Victoria Resource Society, and health researcher, has taken a very active part in the debate and will shed light on the legal and social tangles this bill appears to create. She will also highlight just how complex an issue our lawmakers are grappling with.
