TORONTO, July 13, 1998 (LSN) Human Resources Development Canada, headed by Cabinet   Minister Pierre Pettigrew, is apparently bringing immigrants into Canada specifically to fill spots in   the country’s strip clubs. According to a Toronto Sun editorial today, strip clubs in Canada can’t   find enough Canadian women to “perform” so they are looking elsewhere.

According to the article, HRCD’s labour market study has noted that importing strippers is not   illegal because they will “not adversely affect employment opportunities for Canadian citizens.”“This is a legitimate occupation,” it says, and Immigration Canada will put them in their own   category to help meet the employment shortage.
