lol that wasn't a discussion, both were continually talking over each other.

While Nikki makes some good points, I don't think his delivery did them any justice.

And that old goat represents Canadian women? She probably hasn't had any since before WWII.....

As we all know Nikki is a very intelligent and well researched advocate of her profession and that comes through during this debate.

What she needs to do is to learn how to put her points across in a better fashion in these platforms.

Interrupting and talking over your opponent is just annoying for the listener.

There are experts who can coach her in this regard. Once she gets that down her effectiveness with go up 10 fold.

Yes, too bad. I stopped watching it because she was being rude and not letting the old lady finish any sentences. Nikki does know what she is talking about but play it cool I say.

the old coot wasn't any better but imagine how much better Nikki would have come across had she not played that game?

But then again, I bet Nikki gets this all the time when trying to get her point across....people just don't listen.

What's scary is the old coot firmly believed that all the data that she stated were 100% accurate and probably preaches to high heaven that it is so. That's the problem with questionaires. Unless you interview ALL the people in the demographic, you won't get an accurate picture. But of course those opposed to the new laws wouldn't do that because it wouldn't prove their point.....

Agreed, she did not come off so well. That's unfortunate because you can tell she is really passionate about this and is somewhat of an expert on the matter.

She has been live-tweeting the hearings, which has been pretty informative - for those who are interested:

She is very informed and her passion gets the best of her. My fear is that the Federal Conservatives will tighten up the prostitution laws because all this brings the hobby into the public domain.
