Ontario residents protected from exposure to second-hand
smoke
On May 31 2006, the provincial government introduced a new law
that prohibits smoking in all enclosed public places and workplaces including
vehicles.
The Smoke-Free Ontario Act is a renewed tobacco strategy aimed
at reducing the impact of the leading cause of premature death and disease in
Ontario. This strategy and the Act also help keep cigarettes out of the hands of
children and help Ontario residents quit smoking. For more information about
smoking, visit
