In Canada, new provisions of the Tobacco Control Act come into effect this Saturday. Smokers are resigned, but bar keepers want flexibility.
The new regulation prohibits adults from buying tobacco for a minor, but above all, it prohibits smoking within a radius of 9 meters from any door or window that opens, or air intakes that communicate with a closed place. where smoking is prohibited.
Offenders risk even higher fines, from 250 $ to 750 $, or from 500 $ to 1500 $ in case of recurrence. The Union of bar tenants is trying to convince the Couillard government that this law must be softened, which it considers difficult to apply.
