Sex Workers’ Autonomous Committee of Montreal (SWAC) says workers in strip clubs and massage parlours are dealing with poor treatment, unsafe conditions and unfair business practices.
SWAC chose the Grand Prix weekend because it is considered the busiest and most profitable time of the year for adult entertainment venues.
SWAC believes the timing gives workers the strongest chance to pressure business owners and bring attention to their demands.
