street workers

I have seen them a few years ago, at random. But I don't think it exists in any large amount. Cell phones and the internet years ago had gotton rid of the pure street walker - they might be on the street why waiting for the next outcall, but it was becoming more of a hobby than a core activity. But who knows?
My brother saw a few a year ago, while walking in Toronto early in the morning.
But they are very few in number.
That makes a lot of sense. I remember years ago when I was a wee lad still a student in a Canadian Criminal System class while studying Criminology, my professor (who ironically dealt a lot with prostitution because he was in the RCMP on a taskforce targeting Organized Crime, specifically biker gangs) mentioned that technology will change the way the Sex Trade works because the de jure law only made it a crime if payment for services was discussed in person
In most developed countries including Canada, street walkers are a thing of the past. Advances in smart phones, and online advertising have made it much more convienient and safer for girls to work out of apartments or hotels. If you do encounter a street walker in Toronto, most likely they are women that suffer from a combination of homelessness, drug addiction or mental illness, and best to stay away as far as possible.
