According to the Criminal Code of Canada, trafficking occurs when someone recruits, transports, transfers, receives, holds or harbours a person; or exercises control, direction or influence over the movements of a person for the purpose of exploiting them or facilitating their exploitation.
Sex Trafficking is the use of force, violence, threats of violence, deception, coercion, or emotional manipulation to influence a person to perform sexual acts for money.
Sex trafficking is grossly exploitative and infringes on a persons human and basic rights such as the right to life, the right to liberty, the right to education, the right to free movement, the right to live in a safe and nurturing environment and the right to be free from abuse.
Reports on sex trafficking indicate that the biggest target population is youth and especially girls between 12 and 18 years old.
