A happy ending parlour employing a couple dozen staff,  once operated out of the top two floors of a prominant hotel in Richmond. Many of the employees were in Canada illegally. The City finally had to do something about it after a CTV story. Well, it was moved out of that location anyways.


There are plenty of body-rub parlours still operating in Richmond. The City and council turns a blind eye unless they get significant  complaints, as they did for one place on Steveston Hwy. 

The RCMP is well aware of the locations of all these illegal activities, but the City is not interested in enforcement.
