Re: Dalton's anti-smoking minions have had enough.

Candians want this kind of control on their lives.

Ontarians must as they keep supporting a nanny state approach by Dalton. I don't know what goes on outside Ontario.

Steer clear of Quebec. One of the reasons I moved out of there. Ontario, even with Dalton, is very hands-off in comparison.

Nope. It's across Ontario. The Medical Officers of Health are united on this one.

I must admit to being very impressed by your concern RIfleman. Everytime you want to light up you get in your trailer and leave the Province (and country).

Gone was referring to Dalton's support base. Of course the Medical Officers of Health are united when funds are raining down on their units , some with no oversight, from the MOH budget.

No, folks who are dying support this, too. Dying from COPD is a hell of a way to go. The payback, however, in reduced health costs, is quite high. The next campaign will be to promote moderation in consuming alcohol.

Of course those dying support this. There are plenty of other things that could be addressed that have a dramatic effect on health care costs. Of course those are left alone as smokers are the low hanging fruit for harassment and easily demonized by the majority of the population reminiscent of the 30s in Germany.

But..but..but alcohol probably causes as much or more death, injury and expense to the health care system so start clamping down on it like cigarettes. Oh, that's right, it's enjoyed by far more of society and would be harder to demonize those who drink even moderately.

No, I didn't. Honest... I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake.......

Define "Moderation".

Does Dalton increase taxes on booze in the name of "Social Responsibility".
Does Dalton curtail the hours of the LCBO to make it harder to get booze.
Does Dalton shut down the Wine Stores?

Nope. Those aren't on the radar. Sin taxes are a revenue matter, not a health matter. Moderation means developing a culture where binge drinking is strongly discouraged, among other things.

BUT DKS,you've hit the nail on the head, Moderation leads to less revenue, and thus has to be made up elsewhere.
