The selling of sex in Canada is legal but military police allege she broke the law with the “unlawful use of military uniforms": police docs

Military police are threatening to charge a sex worker who offers discounts to Canadian soldiers and senior leaders are warning troops to stay away from the Kingston-area woman.

But such efforts have backfired and sex worker Christina Lea Gilchrist tells this newspaper that she is being inundated with messages from military personnel interested in the services she provides.

    According to her IG page she posted on the candian forces Reddit about a soldier who removed the condom during intercourse. She was banned for that, and on a totally “unrelated” case threatened to charge her for waring a uniform on her site.

    Lol, command should get fucked. It might reduce their stress levels.

    Honestly, we need to bring sex workers into the normal business world so they can have all the protections under the law.

    Must be tough being a sex worker when you’re a floating torso.

    Something tells me they didn’t offer discounts initially, but got exhausted from their clients constantly asking for them that they just started doing them by default. “Yes you’re getting a veterans discount, shut up and pay me already”

    I think it was a pretty big fuck up for the military to handle it this way.

    But at the same time isn’t it very common for espionage to happen through prostitution? Prostitutes collecting the badge information of their military customers is legitimately the sort of thing that’s a huge intelligence risk.

    She’s probably now under significant csis communications surveillance. It’s actually a little surprising that they sent a memo to the Forces instead of finding a good way of blackmailing her to get her to stop. I’m not saying that’s what they should have done, just that it’s a little surprising they didn’t.

    I don’t know how they ought to have handled this, but I think they should have done better.
