Foreign Strippers Must Submit Photo
Josh Pringle
Foreign strippers planning to dance in Canadian clubs
must now provide photos of themselves with no clothes
on to qualify for a visa for Canada.
The Canadian Embassy in Mexico says "stage photos
during performances are required.''
Immigration officers are having to pore through naked
pictures of hundreds of exotic dancers to keep
imposters out of Canada.
In a memo to fellow visa officers around the world,
officials say if a dancer passes the no-clothes test,
they may then require a police certificate or medical
examination.

However:
Officials Don't Ask for Nude Photos
Josh Pringle
The Federal Immigration Department says officials
don't ever ask for nude photos of foreign strippers
who want to work in Canada.
Visa officers do sometimes ask for "stage
photographs'' as proof that women seeking employment
as exotic dancers in Canada have experience at the
trade in their home countries.
The idea behind the screening is to ensure foreign
women aren't being exploited by the club owners who
hire them in Canada.
