Canada's Bill C-452 passed the House!

March 7, 2013 News: Bill C-452, an Act to amend the Criminal Code (exploitation and trafficking in persons) received a unanimous vote in the House of Commons yesterday. This Bill seeks to amend the Criminal Code, preventing traffickers from getting away with light sentencing as it provides for consecutive sentences for offences related to procuring and trafficking. Traffickers would then have to serve these sentences one, after another. The Bill would also amend the Criminal Code to allow for money (proceeds) of human trafficking crimes to be seized. Together as we confront sex slavery in Cambodia and worldwide, let’s all celebrate this Canadian news and share it!
