Sending unsolicited sexually explicit messages (even just text) or images is a federal crime and can be included in sexual harassment claims.

Are US and Canada law similar in that aspect?

I'm a citizen of the USA and have only worked for US businesses. I don't know about Canadian law (nor am I a lawyer in the US) but I would be surprised and saddened if they don't have a strong legal system to protect victims.
