TORONTO â A $30-million lawsuit launched against the federal government, an immigration doctor and a popular Toronto strip club by a man who contracted HIV from his ex-wife nearly eight years ago should be dismissed because he waited too long to pursue legal action, the Ontario Superior Court heard Tuesday.Percy Wilbert Whiteman, 36, claims all three parties were negligent in causing his infection because they did not take the necessary steps to find out that his former wife, Suwalee Iamkhong, was HIV-positive.Whiteman alleges that immigration officials put him at risk by not testing Iamkhong, an exotic dancer from Thailand, for the human immunodeficiency virus when she immigrated to Canada in May 1995 on a special work visa.The two met at the Zanzibar Tavern in downtown Toronto and were m …

Percy Whiteman, 36, claims that his former wife, Suwalee Iamkhong, and the other parties’ negligence led to his contracting the human immunodeficiency virus.

A motion to dismiss a $30-million lawsuit against federal immigration officials by a Toronto man who was infected with HIV by his stripper ex-wife is slated to be heard on Tuesday.
Percy Whiteman, 36, is suing his ex, Suwalee Iamkhong, Immigration Canada, a government doctor and the Zanzibar Tavern, alleging their negligence led to him contracting HIV.
The day-long motion will be heard by a Superior Court judge in Toronto who will quite likely reserve his decision, Whiteman’s lawyer, Mauricio Benzaquen, said on Monday.
Whiteman claims Iamkhong, 42, a former go-go dancer and prostitute in Hong Kong, was allowed into Canada with HIV and that led to his life being placed in jeopardy.
Iamkhong arrived in Canada in 1995 and worked as a stripper at the Zanzibar on Yonge St. until 2004. The pair were married from 1997 to 2004, when she told him that she had HIV.

What did she learn? Some 12,000 TTC workers and 2.5 million daily riders want to know. So does Mayor Rob Ford, who is currently butting heads with Stintz over his desire to fully bury the Eglinton LRT line.
Lucky for them all, I have chanced upon what appears to be a bootleg transcript of the Feb. 23 episode, airing on W Network. Here’s a sampling of scenes:
TTC fare booth attendant Biff: “Psssst, Travis. Wake up! Wake up!”
Travis: “Wha— wha—?!”
Biff: “Look over there. That chick with the camera dude. Tell me that’s not Sarah Palin!”
Travis: “Aww, roll another spliff, Biff?” (He squints.) “Son of a gun…it could be. Hubba, hubba. What’s she doin’ down here? We got an Alaska line now? I thought Sheppard was the subway to nowhere.”
Cleaning lady: “What’d you say your name was, honey?”
Ruth Bear: “Ruth Bear”
Cleaner: “You’re kidding. You a stripper? ‘Cause you sure ain’t a cleaner. This toilet bowl’s still got a ring.”

Windsor strip club invites you to come toss a dwarf
…
An Ontario strip club that was the impetus for a law against so-called dwarf-tossing is at it again. The law never passed, so Leopard’s Lounge & Broil, in Windsor, is holding another dwarf-tossing contest Saturday.
…
The event at Leopard’s Lounge & Broil is evidently pretty much exactly what it sounds like. They hire a little person, dress him up in a Christmas elf costume, and then drunk customers pick him up and toss him onto a mattress on the floor. It’s not really clear how this is supposed to complement the club’s routine stripping business, but presumably on the venn diagram of life there’s at least some overlap between people who are interested in visiting a strip club in Windsor and people that would want to lift and throw a little man.

Director Aaron Willis has kept all the period appropriate references to VCRs, Quentin Tarantino’s breakout films, and the release of the Tommy Lee & Pamela Anderson sex tape intact. He and sound designer Lindsay Taft have also done a plum job of giving the piece an authentic late ’90s soundtrack—Radiohead, Green Day, etc.—that thankfully never overwhelms the actor’s dialogue. RENT really is discussed, in a withering appraisal by Petra, who’s developed a tenuous friendship with a lonely patron (Mike McPhaden, in a nicely nuanced turn) at the strip club where she’s secretly taken up dancing again. Loneliness is a disease that creeps up on all the characters in Shinn’s play, though it’s more obvious with some; Stephen’s, for instance, is outright and desperate, and exaggerated by Mark’s repression and new lifestyle choices (which drive Lewis’ still-pining character to distraction).

… The activities that take place at these clubs have to be brought under control,” he insisted. “Right now, there’s no laws that governs these clubs or the swingers inside.”
The association has written to city councillors and licensing officials to take action.
City of Toronto spokesman Bruce Hawkins said there are no plans to start licensing the clubs, adding they are governed by the Criminal Code.
He noted “services” are not provided by owners of the clubs.
“The activity is carried out by the patrons,” he said in an e-mail.
The owners of Wicked, meanwhile, said they’re abiding by all city bylaws and guidelines.
“We are operating under the rule of law,” said co-owner Aurora Benzion. “We are providing a venue for people to meet.”
Benzion said her club is different from a strip club or massage parlour, since her patrons “have a very different lifestyle.”

7) At Idomo furniture, a pitchman’s final sale: “Unlike so many of Toronto’s more abrasive hucksters—from ‘Bad Boy’ Mel Lastman and his obnoxious bellows of ‘Noooooobody!’ to costumed stunts by Russell Oliver’s (a.k.a. ‘Cash Man,’ a.k.a. ‘The Loan Arranger’)—Gerrit de Boer exhibited a distinctive warmth and humility,” writes John Semley on the retirement of one of the city’s top furniture moguls.
