[Viva] This is a great video - taken at the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network re. sex workers and litigation

[Denise Becker]

yes, Tami, Stephen does use too much academic language - all I can guess is
that it was what he used around the table with his parents but all the same
he has to speak to people who don't know those words.  I always feel like I
have to go and look in a dictionary after he has given a talk.  But he is a
passionate speaker and well worth seeing.

This video shows a guy who is totally different to how you think of lawyers
- a tell it like it is guy - thank goodness he is on our side!!!
