Well they have a smoking ban here so irts pretty much no smoking so mostly people arent around smokers in my area anymore especially at work, but I do see what you are saying. It does suck but I am sure if there was a simple solution than it would be taken care of but there isnt one.

All ya'll come to Canada and see what expensive is. We pay AT LEAST $10 Canadian for a pack of premium smokes. I pay $11 for my brand.

5 years ago, I was paying $3.50 for the same smokes.

Not to mention the fact that insurance is mandatory here, and ridiculously expensive. So much so that if you're under 25, you're paying through your teeth even on a 250cc.

if they didn't give you a choice it would be socialism and not a democracy, But they are already making it a socialist country by taxing gas so people don't drive and "warm the climate" and taxing cigarettes essentially forcing you to quit, it may not be bad yet, but give it a few years and you wont be able to touch a pack of cigs for less than 15$ i swear. Welcome to Obamunism.

FYI -- there are two subjects that are not discussed on CBRF ... politics and religion. If you wish to go on a rant about either I suggest you find an appropriate forum.

Thanks
