Canadas laws are very different from what I can tell. I literally cannot find anything related to proof of age of models. Their criminal code does not even have the word pornography in it according to this.
Here's the closest thing I've found relating to the subject:
Canada Response
Over the past several years, the Internet has grown in many ways. Along with benefiting the education system, the Internet has also provided a useful tool for research and collaboration. Access to the Internet has even spread throughout the world, allowing people from different backgrounds and ways of life to unite. On the surface this increased communication appears to have only positive benefits, however there are many negative consequences that are also connected to this issue. One such issue is the concept of privacy. How the United States views privacy is much different than how other nations view privacy. Even Canada, a country that is very close in proximity, has differing views on what rights citizens have with respect to Internet privacy. This section is going to discuss the Canadian response to the issue of Internet privacy.
In Canada, laws and regulations regarding privacy are very favorable to the citizens. Rather than the government having control over a user's online actions, Canadian citizens are given a full right to Internet privacy. In January 2001, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act came into effect, providing laws to protect Canadian citizens' right to privacy. These regulations are mainly concerned with e-commerce, ensuring that users are informed about the data being collected, and are given rights to restrict its distribution. Canada also has differing policies in regard to online content. Whereas most countries restrict "inappropriate" content, Canada has very lax laws in this regard. One such example is Canada's laws regarding pornography. In the Canadian criminal code, there is no reference to the term pornography. The only related law governs the concept of "obscenity", stating that "any publication a dominant characteristic of which is the undue exploitation of sex, or of sex and one or more of the following subjects, namely crime, horror, cruelty and violence is deemed to be obscene" is not allowed. However this law is very open to speculation, and does not even apply specifically to Internet actions. Therefore Canada allows much more freedom to its citizens in their online endeavors; giving them a full right to Internet privacy.
Therefore it can be determined that the Singapore scenario would not have occurred in Canada. Forcing all users to log in through a single proxy server, retaining information on users and restricting their access to specific Internet sites would be considered a violation to the Canadian Privacy Commission.

This is interesting ...
I never knew about this ...
However, it is irrelevant as it is my intention to obey the laws of my primary suppliers and credit card processors.
However - I want a magazine where no sexual topic can not be discussed and that all members are 100% anonymous.
Membership - being simply a "intellectual" test that you have the capability to understand that as you continue to enter the website - it's content tends to be more explicit and the WORDING of those documents are intended to push your sexual prejudice "buttons". Facts and stats - are - facts and stats. Sometimes lessons need to be discussed ... my website is more like a magazine or OPTIONAL INTERCOURSE methods ... different ways of handling situations - when the generic "medical websites" fail ...
Father type answers ...
Hence the handle "
[email protected]" ... which clearly identifies my gender, that I am not a Doctor - and my person perspective of things ...
