Minister of Children and Family Development does favor to pimps, johns, and pedophiles
March 12, 2004

Minister of Children and Family Development, Christy Clark, is doing a favour to pimps, johns, and pedophiles. At the end of this month her ministry is closing the only safe houses in the Lower Mainland for children who are 13-15 years old. These houses provide a safe place for children who are abused and exploited and homeless. Between September of 2003 and March of 2004 fifty-three girls lived in these safe houses: meaning, fifty-three girls were not on the street. It is 'Stop the Sexual Exploitation of Children and Youth' week this week (March 8 to 14). Apparently, the Minister of Children and Family Development is not participating.
