Résumé
"This study was commissioned by the Department of Justice Canada. It is one of the few
studies of its kind in the country. The researchers hope that it will constitute a meaningful
contribution to long-term policy development in the area of protecting the rights of
trafficking victims and to ensure that gender issues are considered within any policy framework.
This project focuses on both international and domestic trafficking. It examines Canada as a
source, destination and/or transit country. The emphasis is on trafficking in persons as a human
rights issue as well as a gender issue. The objectives of this research project are to gain a deeper
understanding of the characteristics and the needs of victims of trafficking, as well as to
document the community-based services that currently exist for victims and any gaps that may
exist in these services."--Page iii.
