So, are you all saying that is perfectly legal for a 14 year old to have sex with a 22 year old ? That is just plain sick.

I just emailed a minute ago. I forgot to say where I was from. This is in regards to a 14 year old having sex with a 22 year old. Is that legal in Ontario Canada ? I want to have this pedefile charged. Its very upsetting to me.

I can't find your other post but here is the law:

"Although Canada is a federation, the criminal law (including the definition of the age of consent) is in the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal government, so the age of consent is uniform throughout Canada. Section 151 of the Criminal Code of Canada makes it a crime to touch, for a sexual purpose, any person under the age of 16 years. Section 153 then goes on to prohibit the sexual touching of a person under 18 by a person in three circumstances: if he or she is in a "position of trust or authority" towards the youth, if the youth is in a "relationship of dependency" with him or her, or if the relationship is "exploitative". The term "position of trust or authority" is not defined in the Code but the courts have ruled that parents, teachers, and medical professionals hold a position of trust or authority towards youth they care for or teach. For determining whether a relationship is "exploitative", s. 153 (1.2) of the Code provides that a judge can consider how old the youth is, the difference in ages between the partners, how the relationship evolved, and the degree of control or influence that the older partner has over the youth."

PLEASE stop opening new threads. Answer where you've posted before.

Assuming you are talking to me - did you actually read what I posted. The important part is it is "a crime to touch, for a sexual purpose, any person under the age of 16 years."

I don't know how to make it any more clear. One party is under 16. Therefore, it's a crime.

Please read it again:
