Sex and the Valley

Okanagan Life seeks to uncover the truth. Just how modest are we?

In this issue we explore that most titillating and taboo of subjects (gulp) ... sex. You'll meet a genuine Okanagan callgirl, hear directly from religious leaders, find out what it's like to be gay in the Valley and learn the truth about the dark side. We've got a ghostly destination, a crafty angler, a dedicated 911 operator and so much more.
