It's a dirty job...

...but somebody's got to do it.

Immigration officers are having to pore through naked pictures of hundreds of exotic dancers to keep imposters out of Canada, the Toronto Sun reported Tuesday. Foreign strippers planning to table dance in clubs must now provide photos of themselves with no clothes on to qualify for a visa for Canada, said immigration officials. [...] The potential dancers have to prove they can dance in the nude, immigration lawyer Mendel Green said Monday. "They can't be partially nude," he said. "If they don't have pictures in the nude, they are not going to wiggle their bottoms in Canada."

In a related story, HR staff at Citizenship and Immigration Canada (the Canuck version of the INS) report being overwhelmed by the surge in applications for positions as immigration officers and have begun turning away jobseekers at the door. One applicant (picture) remarked, "Worst. Interview. Ever."
