Justice Susan Himel of the Ontario Superior Court ruled yesterday that three provisions of Canada's prostitution laws are unconstitutional. In short, sex work has been decriminalized in Ontario, and hopefully Canada will be next! You can find out more at the Sex Professionals of Canada website here.



On October 1st, the very talented artist Angelina Wrona is coming to North Bay's 187 Gallery to reveal some of her new art and to sign autographs. The event starts at 7pm and is the gallery is located at 187 Main St E. Her work will be featured there until October 27th.


And the luverly folks at Soggy Creek Seed Co. are having a contest...go submit your weird carrot peektures or just go have a gander at the ones posted so far! :D

Sláinte!

It's so great that you get out there and do actual footwork for good causes. Fantastic work.

Also, Angelina Wrona was showing at a gallery in Merrickville and I saw her work there. VERY cool. Not something for the kids' room, but I'd hang it in my office anytime ^.^

Thanks Medusae! :) Do you have any of Angelina's work? I don't, but Aymi has a few of her prints.
