The sanctions were imposed after the bar offered “exotic entertainment” at the bar in contravention of its liquor licence, which only permitted musicians and singers to be employed as entertainment.

The department did not immediately provide details on just what sort of “exotic entertainment” landed the bar in hot water.

Adjudicator Liza A. Robichaud imposed the fine on Oct. 3.
