PICTOU, Nova Scotia, May 8 (UPI) -- Pictou County in Canada's eastern province of Nova Scotia has no strip clubs but a proposed ban on them is being considered regardless.
Councilor David Parker submitted the Adult Entertainment Prohibition bylaw at a council meeting this week for debate on June 8, Nova Scotia's Chronicle Herald reported.
He acknowledged there aren't any strip clubs or massage parlors in the county now but said he wants to take pre-emptive measures just in case.
"It may not come to Pictou County," he said. "We're aging. We're not a prime market."
Rebecca Battist-Rhude, a registered massage therapist, said she finds the proposal "very annoying and very frustrating."
She told the Chronicle Herald she's concerned potential clients wouldn't understand the proposed bylaw's reference to making body rubs illegal wouldn't apply to massage therapy, and said selling sexual services is already a federal criminal offense.
