Podcast - Ministers, Strippers, Hell’s Angels and Guns

Ministers, Strippers, Hell’s Angels and Guns
A Minister introduces a bill and gets some heat in Canada, which makes it hard for hardworking strippers and club owners who have to umm… import foreign talent. Good thing they have Hell’s Angels to “lobby” for them, or at least they did, back in the day. Want to talk Guns in the workplace? It could (legally) happen. Plus, the story of “Oh.” Its quite interesting. (Plus Karen has a potty mouth.) All this and more in the latest round of The Recruiters Lounge.
