Sgro Must Step Down; Cdn Gov't Threats

[maplesyrup]

Liberal threats alleged

It is time for Immigration Minister Sgro to go, and for there to be an inquiry into her ministry that seems to be involved with threats, intimidation, strippers, strip clubs, prostitution, tax evasion, immigration fraud, and who knows what else.

What in the world is our Canadian government coming to getting mixed up in all this low-life underworld stuff?

The importation of strippers needs to stop.

Because this has been allowed, strip clubs have turned into brothels.

The average strip club pays $60/shift- 8/10hrs.

You say "those girls make more money than me!", not true, because everyone coming into the has that attitude, so the girls make noine some nights.

Now, girls are actuallt getting thrown out of clubs for refusing to allow customers to touch them. I asked an owner of a club in SImcoe "when did stripper become synonomous with prostitute?", to wich he replied "if men just wanted to see naked women, they could go home and turn on music videos"!

More Canadian women would go back to the clubs if owners were required to pay $10/hr, and since they have to claim the income at tax time, they should be entitled to some maternity benefits!

Embattled minister promises changes to exotic dancer rules

A bit too late, at least as far as the minister holding onto her job, I would say.

Susan Delecourt said on Politics today that there is a growing backlash in Canada against the Conservative witch hunt against women concerning their attacks against Judy Sgro during Question Period.

Maybe PM Martin will have a little cabinet shuffle over the holidays, eh!

Want to go to Canada? Learn dancing

NEW DELHI: TV channels aren’t the only ones looking for item bombs who can shake it. Exotic dancing could be your visa to Canadian citizenship.

It may sound an odd job, but the Canadians can’t do without it. At the moment, Latinos and East Europeans have been performing well for them. Canadian rules classify ‘exotic dancing’ as a job that the labour department monitors for shortages.

Making it easier, especially for women, to emigrate and fill Canada’s ‘exotic dancing’ needs. The nature of the job makes it controversial and brings up the charge of trafficking and sex trade.

Quite the nice little international reputation we are developing, aren't we!

Dear maplesyrup,

While I have no problem with 'exotic dancing', I agree we don't need to import any via gov't assistance. If the industry is suffering from shortages, then the industry needs to offer higher wages, benefits, etc. to take care of it's own problems.

Besides, how can we be importing strippers when we need doctors? I blame the free enterprise system.

We could always ban strip-clubs entirely, that'd solve the problem

Low-life underworld stuff? It's the Liberal Party of Canada, we should be used to it by now.

Know any strippers looking for a job?

Is it true that in Ontario the strippers don't get an appearance fee, and they only get money by selling lap-dances? If that's the case, no wonder they need to import women from poor countries. Maybe instead of lobbying for favors from Immigration, these businessmen should re-examine the way they compensate the dancers.
