But there actually are loads of people like that in Toronto, juniorfox!
I know that. I'm not disputing their existence only their intelligence.

...and then off to the Santa Claus Parade the next morning to projectile vomit over a group of special needs kids while handing out campaign buttons and then a quick appearance at an Argonauts game where he can run through a press scrum and then knock down a cheerleader for a few minutes of dry-humping followed by a few more campaign slogans.
Yup, was confirmed a couple days ago, as long as Ford is still newsworthy. I *think* it will be on the Seth Meyer news report part of the show.
AGREED +1000
Even if she were a sex worker, so what? It's legal. Let's not judge her, or label her, or make her life more difficult. She may end up getting evicted from wherever she lives as a result for fear of her "running a common bawdy house." There is no reason to drag her into this any more than she already has been by Ford's staffers or the ITO because some jerks (pun intended) get their jollies or because screaming "hooker" headlines sell papers.
I think she's fair game. You don't have to agree with me (but com'on...did you see the same video I did...think I'm making a bad call?)
Besides, it may not be fair, but sometimes you are judged by the company you keep.
It just goes to show how bloody toxic Ford is. Associate with him, and you will end up arrested, beat up, dead, or even possibly called a slut.
Though conversely, if we time-travel back to the 70s, I'm sure a whole lot of those Yorkvillean disco habitues a la Anne-Marie Sten were what we'd deem now (rightly or wrongly) as escorts-in-all-but-name, hooking up w/Berlusconian or Khashoggian sugar-daddy characters...
That's BS, judgmental and sexist. 99% of the people who associate(d) with Ford will walk away with their named and faces unknown to 99.99999% of the citizens of Toronto. I think this young women is being judged more, and more harshly, than anybody else who has become collateral damage here. And I don't care whether she is a service provider. Sex workers are businesswomen (and men) and, as long as they operate within the law, are entitled to make a living by charging for their time.
Even if she were a sex worker, so what? It's not like they were doing it in the council chamber. There's no evidence that they did it at all.
If she is a sex worker, her business is wrecked because she's clearly VIP material and now her clients would not want to be seen with her. Discretion is everything in the upper end of the trade.
As for her not getting a lawyer and suing, that's expensive and it's like suing for being called gay when one is not. You won't win in court because there's nothing wrong with being gay. What's more, this is a police matter and she'd be an idiot to open her mouth at this point without a heavily-lawyered script.
It really pisses me off that this girl, sex worker or not, will come out of this less unscathed than Twohey, Price, and all the other enablers.
Mr. Ford may seek injunction to stop next council meeting.

That said, assuming she is a sex worker - doing business with a high profile client comes with occupational hazards - you can't want your discretion and then expect to somehow escape unscathed when your client get himself in deep, deep sh*t and causing you collateral damage. If one doesn't want that risk, don't err, boink someone famous?
