- Notes
- In response to the article "Anglican women united at the UN to call for equality (March 25 [2009], anglicanjournal.ca) the author writes of her concern about the upcoming Olympics in Vancouver. "'In Vancouver, one of the things that is particularlyon our mind is human sexual trafficking because of the Olympics coming up,' she said. "It's one of the things that is expected when you get a large group of sports fans who tend to be predominantly male. And being a port city as well, we already have trafficking here but the concern is that it will rise exponentially with the Olympics'."
