For all members of Canadian Skills and Training college to work and study in an environment that is free from any form of sexual violence. To set out how we address sexual violence. To assure that those who are affected by sexual violence are believed and adequately accommodated. This college has an investigative process that protects the rights of individuals and holds individuals who have committed an act of sexual violence responsible.
All members of the college such as students, employees, governors, contractors, services suppliers, individuals who have an immediate connection to the college initiative (e.g., Work- Integrated Learning, Co-op programs), volunteers, and visitors.
Assault of a sexual nature that violates the sexual integrity of the victim. Such as acquaintance
with sexual contact that is forced, manipulated, or pressured by a partner, friend, or
acquaintance.
Age of consent for sexual activity prescription
The age at that a person can lawfully consent to sexual activity. In Canada, children under 12 can
never legally consent to sexual acts. Sixteen is the legal age of consent for sexual acts. There are
variations on the age of consent for adolescents who are close in age between the ages of 12 and
16. Twelve and 13-year-olds can consent to have sex with other youth who are less than two
years older than themselves. Youth who are 14 and 15 years old may consent to sexual
involvement that is mutual with a person who is less than five years older. Teenagers 16 and 17
years old may legally consent to sexual acts with someone who is not in a position of trust or
authority.
In the context of sexual violence, a compulsion is an illogical and tenacious pressure for sexual activity. Coercion is the use of emotional manipulation, blackmail, threats to family or friends, or the promise of rewards or special treatment to urge someone to do something they do not wish to do, such as being sexual or performing particular sexual acts.
The voluntary and unambiguous agreement to involve in the sexual activity in question. It is the
act of freely agreeing to engage in specific sexual behaviour and requires that a person can
choose between two options of yes or no willingly. Thus it means that there must be an
understandable exchange of necessary words, which shows a willingness to engage in a mutually
agreed-upon sexual activity. It is also prominent important that everyone understands the
following:
Silence or non-communication must never be defined as consent, and a person in a state
of diminished judgment cannot consent
A person is incapable of giving consent if they are asleep, unconscious, or otherwise
unable to communicate
A person who has been threatened or constrained (i.e., is not agreeing willingly) into
engaging in the sexual activity is not consenting to it
A person who is drugged is unable to consent
A person is unable to give consent when under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
A person may be unable to give consent if they have a mental disability preventing them
from fully understanding the sexual acts. The fact that permission was given in the past to
a sexual or dating relationship does not mean that consent is assumed to exist for all
future sexual activity
A person can withdraw consent at any time during a sexual encounter
A person is incapable of giving consent to a person in a position of trust, power or
authority, such as a faculty member initiating a relationship with a student who they
teach, an administrator in a relationship with anyone who reports to them
Consent cannot be given on behalf of another person.
It is the responsibility of the initiator of sexual activity to ensure clear and affirmative responses
are communicated at all stages of sexual engagement. It is also the initiator’s responsibility to
know if the person they are engaging with sexually is a minor.
The Criminal Code of Canada denes “consent” as “the voluntary agreement to engage in the sexual activity in question.” No consent is obtained where: words and conduct of a person other than compliant express the agreement. The complainant is incapable of consenting to the activity. The accused persuades the complainant to engage in the activity by abusing a position of trust, power, or authority. The complainant expresses, by words or behavior, a lack of agreement to engage in the activity, or the complainant, having consented to engage in sexual activity, shows, by words or conduct, a lack of agreement to continue to participate in the activity.
The use of alcohol and/or drugs (prescription or non- prescription), including cannabis for purposes of sexual assault, by a perpetrator to control, overpower, or persuade a victim.
The exposure of the private or intimate parts of the body in a lewd manner, when the perpetrator may be readily observed. Sexual assault is any type of unwanted sexual act done by one person to another that violates the sexual integrity of the victim and involves a range of behaviours from any unwanted touching to penetration. A broad range of behaviours that involve the use of force, threats, or control towards a person, which makes that person feel uncomfortable, distressed, frightened, threatened, or that is carried out in circumstances in which the person has not freely agreed, consented to, or is incapable of giving consent is categorized as sexual assault.
Any sexual act or act targeting a person’s sexuality, gender identity or gender expression, whether the act is physical or psychological that is committed threatened or attempted against a person without the person’s consent, including sexual assault, sexual harassment, stalking, indecent exposure, voyeurism, and sexual exploitation.
Sexual exploitation occurs when a perpetrator takes non‐consensual or abusive sexual advantage of another for their own advantage or benet, or to benet or advantage anyone other than the one being exploited.
Engaging in the course of conduct of a gender-related or sexual nature that is known, or might reasonably be known, to be unwelcome/unwanted, offensive, intimidating, hostile, or inappropriate. Depending on its severity, one action may constitute sexual harassment. This may include, but is not limited to; demeaning gestures, remarks, and jokes; slurs; taunting; innuendo based on gender or sexual orientation; unwanted physical contact; leering; inappropriate comments about clothing, physical characteristics or activities; unwanted questions or comments about one's private life, sexual orientation, marital or family status; the display of sexually offensive material; solicitation; unwanted attention; implied or expressed promise of reward or benet in return for sexual favours; implied or expressed threat or act of reprisal if sexual favours are not given or sexual assault (Criminal Code of Canada offense). Stalking A form of criminal harassment prohibited by the Criminal Code of Canada. It involves behaviours that occur on more than one occasion and which collectively instill fear in the victim/target or threaten the victim/target’s safety or mental health. Stalking can also include threats of harm to the victim/target’s friends and/or family. These behaviours include, but are not limited to: nonconsensual communications (face to face, phone, email, social media), threatening or obscene gestures, surveillance, sending unsolicited gifts, “creeping” via social media/cyber- stalking and uttering threats. Survivor Some who have experienced sexual violence may choose to identify as a survivor. Individuals might be more familiar with the term “victim.” We use the term survivor throughout this Policy where relevant because some who have experienced sexual assault believe they have overcome the violent experience and do not wish to identify with the victimization. It is the prerogative of the person who has experienced these circumstances to determine how they wish to identify.
Observing a person, including by mechanical or electronic means, or making a visual recording of a person who is in circumstances that give rise to a reasonable expectation of privacy.
When an individual is in a position of dependency on others, because of their age, a disability or other circumstances, whether temporary or permanent or is otherwise at a greater risk than the general population of being harmed by a person in a position of trust or authority towards them.

duty.

providing accommodation appropriate under the circumstances.
5.1 If a person, in good faith, discloses or less a sexual violence complaint that is not supported

6.1 Confidentiality is particularly important to those who have disclosed sexual violence.
6.2 The confidentiality of all persons involved in a report of sexual violence must be strictly
observed, and Canadian Skills and Training College does its best to respect the confidentiality of
all persons, including the complainant, respondent, and witnesses, by restricting routine access to
information to individuals with a need for such access, as well as providing education and
training to those who are regularly involved in the administration of reports and complaints.
However, confidentiality cannot be assured in the following circumstances: An individual is at
imminent risk of self-harm. An individual is at imminent risk of harming another. There are
reasonable grounds to believe that others in the Canadian Skills and Training College or wider

to the public.

identities of the persons involved.
