I'm no lawyer, but it sounds to me like there is protection for people under 18 from greasy people over 18. Any adult male going for a 14 year old girl is obviously being "exploitative".

(As JofM furiously types a reply) Section 153 of the Criminal Code is titled Sexual Exploitation. It combines the elements of sexual interference and invitation to sexual touching with other circumstances to constitute the crime of sexual exploitation.
This offence involves a complainant who is a young person (currently between 14 and 18) and an accused who is in a position of auhtoirty or trust viz a vis that complainant.
Completely different animal than the 40 year old getting it on with the 14 year old.
