[quote=WCTMAN,234569]In some cities in Canada, beggers, or panhandlers as we call them, must register with the city government in order to obtain a "work" permit. That's right, a permit to stand on street corners etc. and ask for money. I don't know how you "qualify", or anything else, but it was decided that the number of panhandlers could be controlled, regulated etc. if they were to be officially recognized by the city govt. I would suppose, too, that the police could also ask a panhandler to show their permit; if they didn't have one, they could be told to please move along, and stop harassing people for money or risk being removed. Likely to a jail cell for a short period of time. Some times, jail is nice alternative, since you would get a nice to sleep for a while, plus a meal. There but for the grace of god go I.[/quote]
