Thanks first to all those who have been sending words of encouragement and asking how I have been. As many of you know I have not been well. I am suffering from a chronic liver disease and deterioration of the spine. My activity as a dominatrix is now just a few hours a week and is restricted to a few special followers. But I’m involved in some things you may find interesting.

In the coming months you will read about a constitutional challenge to the present bawdy-house legislation. Law professor Alan Young, one of the finest Canadians alive, is mounting this massive court battle. I am one of the official plaintiffs and am scheduled to testify this summer of 2008. You can read about the case in the Legal Battles section of this web site and follow the case in the media.

I have also been working on my memoirs – encouraged by my supporters and some members of the media. This has been a huge task, which has included much indexing of documents, fact and date checking, drafting and rewriting. I am dividing the book into four volumes and expect the final version may be one thousand pages, when pictures and appendices are included. I will discuss the use of my story in response to any serious enquiries.

Thank you for your kind interest. You may e-mail me at:  headmistress @ madamedesade.com
