Bill c-36 - What effect will it have on Canadian Strip Clubs ?
Have been following of late the news that bill c-36 is set to become law in Canada. The bill appears to be making prostitution illegal and going after those who traffic women and profit from them mostly (which is of course surely correct), but i have seen several comments in other strip club blogs, now worried that lap dancing itself may also be deemed illegal. Stripping itself would not apparently, but who wants air dances ?What is the law in USA with regard to what goes on in a strip club? Plenty of clubs there seem to offer plenty of action.
So you Canadian strip clubbers, how is your SC experience going to change, or how are the clubs going to have to change ?
Myself, i club in Toronto and Niagara... Will the dirty airport clubs be done ? Will even the Brass Rail and Sundowner be allowed to continue mostly as they are ?? or is my SC fun in Canada coming to an end ??
Would be pleased to see what other clubbers who may know more than i over there may think...
Got something to say?

OK, OK...I didn't believe him. He was so stoned that I doubt he could have actually have recognized a cop. But he let me take another toke from his basket full of smoke, so I say he was good people.
But this law would suck. Legalize it, and don't you criticize it man. Applies to hookers and to weed!
Mind you, I'm very opposed to human trafficking. But if an ADULT chick chooses to fuck for the filthy lucre, I say that it ain't nobody's business but hers.

2. What’s a “sexual service”?
The bill doesn’t say, meaning it would likely be up to a court to decide where the line was drawn. A government legal brief, submitted to the committee as it considered the bill, says the courts have found lap-dancing and masturbation in a massage parlour? count as a "sexual service" or prostitution, but not stripping or the production of pornography.

prostitution is illegal, of course. different cities have different ordinances and laws. it's all about the enforcement of these laws. some places don't. some businesses get heat from community leaders and can't make it.
in my area it's a class-e felony to touch a dancer. that still goes on. at the clubs i go to there's sex going on, but usually the girl gets fired if some moron posts online about it. or if something obvious happens.
