We don't have the legislation we should to combat this, the US does better too in protection laws and minimum sentencing. We are slow and convictions for traffickers is a blip on the radar. I hope that after the Olympics there won't be a pull back of resources, keep the momentum going and make Canada be the last place traffickers will want to be! Thanks so much for your input on this, very valuable discussion. Look forward to more talk. :) The RCMP may be getting more force together but Canada has lagged behind other nations for some time now.

Yes there is a connection!) Canada's Department of Justice and the RCMP are not far behind. People trafficking is an emotive subject that is among the top Five Priority goals of most G8 countries and their NGO's. B.C. Politicians are acutely aware of the tempting criminal market opportunity,presented by the 2010 Olympics. Police Forces have it very much in the spotlight.
