Canada is finally getting rid of the penny

#16020622 - 03/30/12 08:41 PM (14 years, 6 months ago)

Its in the 2012 Canadian budget published today.

Its about time. Worthless coin that costs 1.6 cents to produce.

It was originally an NDP idea, but apparently the conservative gvmt listened

The Government will introduce legislation to modernize Canada’s
currency set by eliminating the penny from Canada’s coinage system.
The Government will no longer distribute pennies as of Fall 2012.
However, the penny will retain its value indefinitely and can continue to

Come on merica! Lets get some prostitution going and get rid of that damn pseudo copper coin!

Not prostitution.

Pimping is now legal.

Simply because it has been ruled safer for prostitutes to bring their client to a familiar place (brothel). Soliciting is still illegal

So do you think we can expect to see brothels opening up anytime soon?

They won't officially open brothels. And they won't pay their taxes either.

Its just legal to have a place where prostitutes can bring there clients to a familiar place.

Obviously these places will have a few big guys to protect the whores (illegally). But the court has deemed that situation to be better than letting the prostitutes go in random hotels and become victim to a sexual predator.

Basically the government realize that prostitution cannot be stop by law enforcement, so they decided to protect prostitutes from being killed because of the career path they chose
