TORONTO – Smokers will no longer be allowed to light up on bar or restaurant outdoor patios, playgrounds, and sports fields beginning next year.

The Province of Ontario says it is making changes to the Smoke-Free Ontario Act in order to “protect children and youth from the harmful effects of smoking.â€

Starting Jan. 1, 2015, it will also be illegal to sell tobacco products on university and college campuses.

Yaz adding even more smoking bans. Now smokers cant smoke almost anywhere. Thankgod, i dont deserve secondhand smoke :gaga:

I understand indoor bans but outdoors?

 

Dust, exhaust, cleaning etc fumes are FAR worse than a tiny bit of second hand smoke.

Not a fan of smoking (ex-smoker) but banning it outdoors is a bit too much.

u can still smoke as u walk down a street or on ur own yard

The only places outside u cant smoke in is bus stops and certain specific places. And now playgrounds and restaurant patios were added to the list cuz it has many ppl around

It doesnt mean u cant smoke anywhere outside

Well thats stupid it doesnt hurt anyone besides the smoker , to smoke outside.

that smell bugs me... And its been proven that secind hand can still be somewhat harmful even outside

I shouldnt be forced to be exposed to it or inconvinienced to have to move cause some guy needs to feed his addiction and doesnt have the curtisy to go somewhere without ppl :crossed:

mte. once i was sat on a bus stop and this woman sat next to me and started smoking, blowing her smoke right into my face (because of the wind). i didn't want to move because my legs were TIRED but i didnt want her to be smoking right next to me

 

like go and stand 10ft away, you won't miss your bus

I love Canada but this is stupid and senseless. I am a smoker myself and this is just plain ridiculous. :madge:

the kind of missed curtisy some smokers dont have

 

they shouldnt be smokin around ppl anyway if they have any consideration whats so ever... so it shoudlnt make a difference to them unless they are one of those ppl who dont care and atm just smoke anywhere they please

I love Canada but this is stupid and senseless. I am a smoker myself and this is just plain ridiculous. :madge:

first of all regarding Canada... Canada didnt do this, it was one Provincial Government

 

in any case... i dont smoke, and i dont wanna have to be forced to inhale it... but sometimes ur in some spots smokers dont give u a choice... why should i have to breath it? and smell it? its so inconsiderate

 

like move somewhere where there isnt people

 

when i see someone smoking at a bus stop or a playground with a bounch of kids it makes me filled with disgust :millie:
