Default "Senator" Patrick Brazeau lands job as Strip Club Pole Wiper

From CBC.ca

"Phil Bentivoglio, owner of BareFax Gentlemen's Club, confirmed he had hired Brazeau as the club's day manager. His first full day on the job was Tuesday after completing two weeks of training"

Yeah, learning how to run the loonie magnet is a real art. Nevermind the craft of wiping down the pole...

From National Chief of the Congress of Aboriginal Peoples, to Senator, to Senator who never shows up, to guy who lost to Justin Trudeau in foxy boxing, to rapist (allegedly), to embezzler and fraud artist, to strip club day manager in 5 years.

What a winner. It's sickening to think that Harper described him as "an inspiration to Aboriginal youth" at the time of his appointment.

Human garbage.

Yeah, when you're too old to get it up, you get your dream job.

I think he's ahead of the curve, here: if the Senate is ever abolished they can turn the place into a strip club ("The Red Chamber" does have a certain ring to it), and he can get his old office back.

I dunno, aren't thief and rapist a pretty good place to start? Followed up by a senator taking a job in a strip club seems to make a decent case.

Sure. Now show that these things happened prior to Harper naming him a Senator, and that Harper knew about it at that time.

How does a character like Brazeau landed a senator job is an unsolvable mystery to me. How come nobody at the party caucus said "Is this a f...g joke???"

To be fair the day shift at a strip club is more difficult than the night shift. And dealing with all those ladies egos? This might actually be a tougher gig than the Senate.

I kind of envy the guy for holding my two dream jobs.

Granted, I would have wanted to go Strip Club Manager -> Senator, but it's still impressive nonetheless.

Of course it's harder than being a senator.

Apparently the strippers don't like it.

"Some of my regulars aren't showing up. They don't like all the media cameras surrounding the place."

This hasn't been a good year for Canadian politicians.

Affirmative action. That, and Harper's firm muzzle on dissent.
