minus-squarenathris@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up11arrow-down1·9 months agoThis is the way. There are so few places to smoke in BC that I pretty much only ever see people doing it 5 metres from a bus stop. They are so expensive that the few people that still do it smoke maybe a pack a week. We even banned the sale of no-nic vape juice because they were becoming a gateway to nicotine addiction for teenagers.
