Regarding the second link (Canada's prostitution law) I predicted a year ago as soon as the old law was struck down as unconstitutional, that this would be used as the opportunity to impose the Nordic Model. Puritans are highly predictable creatures and Canada, like the rest of the Anglosphere, has a particularly bad infestation of them.

It's also a fine example of why it's very dangerous to poke the Progressive-based State with a stick.
