From Vancouver myself.
It takes one good session from someone on Perb.ca to list a good report. Then the girl will most likely be busy all the time.
It's clean (everything with a hat) and safe, as long as you're not working alone, which I'm guessing wouldn't happen anyways.
I've heard of people getting held up, but as long as you have a contact that goes to a place with a papasan/brobrosan, I think it's OK.
