ABOUT THE PROBLEM | While some believe human trafficking is an international problem contained to the third world, the truth is that Canada is a significant player in the supply and demand of the industry. Vancouver attracts a liberal-minded tourist. The city is becoming known as an emerging sex trade destination for travelers seeking an eclectic sex experience. Demand for the industry motivates traffickers to supply sex slaves lured from Asia, Eastern Europe, Northern regions of Canada and even local communities. Traffickers supply other regions of the world with Canadian women seeking unique work abroad opportunities.
