Canada always had this stripper/entertainer(also dancers,singers,stand-ups,actors)type of visa.USA has an "entertainer"visa program too,that includes strippers...And many of you must remember the 888 club on ste-Catherine street in Montreal in the 90's? Run by asian mob with asian strippers in the country as tourists,some as cleaning ladies and nannies,they were kept in a bunker,under watch,transported to and from the club,visas/passports kept by boss till they leave,to get a dance you had to buy a coupon from the bar,no cash to them and the montreal police raided them...was all over the news.There are still many "asian" and "russian" massage parlour being run in similar fashion.And yes ,street gangs have many girls (white,black french and english)working in bars,massage,escorts.They recruit a lot of them right out of school or group homes.Stop being so blind,this is real.
