Strippers a no-no at the Conservative Party - Unless they've got decent papers

The Conservatives are, according to an article written today in the Globe and Mail, taking action against the admittance of foreign strippers into Canada. Immigration Minister Diane Finley plans to introduce legistlation that would deny work permits to "working girls."

Many think that the move is a response to the Liberal "strippergate" scandal, where temporary work permits were issued for over 600 exotic dancers before 2004.

What I think?

Though Finley, no doubt, "works hard for the money, so hard for it, honey," she never quite made it in the stripper biz.



I mean, she really has that whole "wife-at-home" vibe that really kills a stag party (or liberal candidacy rally). And next to the foreign stripper, it's really hard for Di to keep her status as a "10" in the Conservative Party (not Canadian politics as a whole, of course. Have you SEEN Ruby Dhalla?).

Though Finley cites the reason of protecting "vulnerable foreign workers" for the new bill, I think looking above provides some clarity on the issue.

...

I really hope the bill doesn't pass, or all my parties are going to suck.
