Facts: Temitope Dare was one of 104 individuals arrested during "Project Raphael," a York Regional Police operation targeting the juvenile sex work market. Dare responded to an undercover ad on Backpage.com, leading to his arrest and conviction for child luring-related offenses.
Issues: The appeal focused on whether Dare was entrapped, given the police's use of a fake ad in an online escort section.
Ruling: The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, aligning with the lower court's conclusion that the operation did not constitute entrapment. The police had a reasonable suspicion focused on a specific online space, making the inquiry bona fide.
