Age of consent debate fuels critique after Saskatchewan case

A Saskatchewan case highlights serious failings from police and prosecutors as a 12 year old girl was exploited by three men who shared beer and attempted sexual acts before two were acquitted on consent grounds. The writer argues a federal change to raise consent to 16 would aid protection and criticizes Ottawa for inaction citing Justice Minister Cauchon and lack of provincial consensus.

Raising age of consent to protect young girls debated

A letter argues that the age of consent should be raised from 14 to 16 to curb sexual predation and trafficking. It cites Canadian provinces Quebec and Saskatchewan where concerns about policing 14 year olds exist and criticizes exemptions for age gaps.
