| Let it come into effect...i hate coming home with smoke filled clothes and I don't even smoke. Frankly I think smokers should care for others....not just themselves...it's us that inhales your cancer sticks with it's carcinogens and stuff. 2nd Hand smoke is twice as dangerous. This is just personal opinion BUT I've always thought smokers were a crazy breed for a few reasons, you know it is dangerous but you still smoke (addiction is tough I know) but you not only smoke in clubs but when you do, you hurt the lungs of others that have chosen not to smoke. I quit clubbing for many reasons for the time being and one of the reasons was the excessive smoke in nightclubs...I take my health seriously....if ppl want to shorten their lives by smoking...their call....but please..for those of us who plan to live long lives....spare us the crap. Note...this is just personal opinion...not intending to start a flame war. |

Smitty, quit yer bitchin'. The law is coming into form whether your nicotine-addicted ass likes it or not. |
Yeah, it is coming into effect and you'll see a lot of negative effects in the restaurant and bar scene in Toronto, just like what happened last time.
But that still doesn't change the fact that a lot of people on here are really good at whining about how smokey clubs are, when most people I know never bitch about it at all. |

and there are many people who smoke and live until age 80, but that's not the point. I was just commenting on how whiney some people here are about it, even though they're getting their own way in a few months. But I don't think these complainers represent the majority of people who go to clubs...as I said, several of my friends who come to big events (but don't post here) NEVER complain about smokey clubs or me smoking in their presence. Maybe because they're not high strung.... |

How many people are you going to tell smoking is going to effect clubs and restarants, if they do let them figure it out,that to and will actually listen to you - "ZERO"
you cant tell other people what to do my friend.Dont Negate someone else point of view
And the other thing being that, they might be well aware of the situation and making some other plans for smokers.

so they don't complain...great...but ask them if they would prefer to have smoke there or not ;)
I agree with others as well...I hate smoke machines and wish they weren't used or at least not be used as much as they are...that is nasty too. |

I have asked them that and they said people who smoke have rights too and should be given a restricted area to smoke in. I've supported that from day one, but most municipalites (including London and Kitchener) have decided that all facilities must be totally smoke free, which isn't fair at all. It's really the whiney few that have attained their wish here...most people, I think, don't hate smokers with a passion. |

i just came back from montreal...
they dont seem to have a problem with smoking anywhere, i wonder if they'll ever be faced with a no-smoking bylaw.
but smitty i agree with you that smokers should have a designated smoking area..
i believe the whole niagara region is smoke free in their bars/restaurants..
everytime we go there, we just have a smoke in the part of the bar that is designated for it, it's almost like being outside... only problem is that it gets so packed in there, u dont wanna smoke, + you cant dance out there either.
i think having a designated area for smoking is good in 2 ways..
1. let's smokers smoke
2. gets so rammed that it deters people smoke smoking at clubs because of the hassle to wait in line to have a in cigarette...
good for toronto for finally passing this law.. now just get the federal gov't to make marijuana legal... |

I'd be willing to bet that it's because they don't want to have to hear and respond to your ignorant views on the topic.
Edit: for the record, I'd just like to make clear to you Smitty that I don't mind designated smoking areas for smokers. All I care about is whether I'm affected. If you smokers want to go sit in a room FILLED with second hand smoke, where not only are you smoking a cigareete but also breathing in second hand smoke from everyone else, go right ahead. |
