Given the option between stripping or robbing, by all means strip and leave my family alone.

Last time I checked, no one put a gun on their heads and forced them to strip for a living. They did that out of their own will and the option of legally doing that. People that like that can go to those clubs and those that don't can avoid them. Simple and democratic. lol

Maybe you guys should lighten up a bit, there is nothing wrong with some old fashioned entertainment. I just read in the 'city vs city' forum that Montreal has a pretty big strip club scene. Now I'm interested and want to check it out. I had Toronto and Windsor on my list of paces to visit in Canada and Montreal on the maybe list but now I want to see Montreal for sure.

It would not be my choice of career for any daughter of mine but it is perfectly legal and if people do it of their own free will...

There are plenty of demeaning, gross and degrading jobs out there.

People focus on this one out of a need to moralize.

I’m pretty sure business is slow these days. Any specific establishments you can recommend?

I haven't been to one in over 15 years.

A lot of them were already closing down way before this covid mess. I don't know how they will continue to operate as strippers make their money from lap/table dances. That is probably not allowed anymore. They don't actually get payed to dance on stage. They actually have to pay the house or the DJ to be able to dance.

I couldn't even go to Canada if I wanted to because of the virus but hopefully this Montreal tradition will still exist when the virus is gone. It's always a shame to see traditions disappear.
