The Village

CBC

In the early 1990s, as AIDS tightens its grip on major cities around the world, the relative safety of Montreal’s nightlife becomes a magnet for gay men. But when they start turning up dead in hotel rooms, beaten lifeless in city parks, and violently murdered in their own homes, the queer community has more to fear than the disease. While the city’s police force dithers over the presence of a seri... more

  • Victim centered and incredibly informative

    The history of gay Toronto mirrors America’s queer history and this podcast is such an important discussion of gay history. My Gen Z children don’t realize how recent the complete erasure of queerness was. How in my own young adulthood complete persecution existed. This podcast mostly ignores the killer and lovingly looks at the life and community of the victims.

In fact, I believe legalizing sex work is a path to reducing sex trafficking. The fact that sex work is illegal means that a greater proportion of clients are likely to have criminal histories and/or be violent. If you don’t ... more
