Political correctness gone mad, that's what I say.
Or, just quit smoking and take up cocaine. It's brilliant! You can drink more, talk more, and everything in the world just seems so......'lubricated'.
Give your lungs a rest, fuck up your nose, mind and heart instead!

you guys never heard of fabreeze>?

see, that is the difference. if i viewed a property and it was inhabited by smokers i would automatically expect the price to go down, even though i smoke myself.

I think you'll find its completely unenforceable and possibly illegal to stop you smoking in your own home. Technically the government would have to ban smoking / make it illegal for it to have a hope in hell of working.
Frankly if it was me I'd tell them all to fuck themselves. What would they do if they issued you fines and you didn't pay. Fuck all.
Worlds full of right on cunts these days. Same here in London.

Surely the issue of a smoker not being willing to buy one of these apartments affects smokers and non-smokers?
Or are these non-smokers really anal non-smokers who would refuse to sell their house to a smoker? I honestly wouldn't put it past them.

Funny how you go out on the balcony to smoke... as you obviously don't like smoke in your own flat, but happy for it to waft up into someone elses. My neighbour smokes and it wafts through are window, and its bloody horrible for someone who doesn't smoke.
He even flicks the ash over our wall.- * fastens bogger on this thread *
so...what up guys?Peter

what's the strata council?
Sounds like a bunch of fucking nazis. I'd just continue smoking because I don't see how such a law could be legal. In fact - I'd double my efforts just to piss off the neighbors.

You kidding me? Ever lived above smokers? It's more than just 2nd-hand from when they're actually smoking- it's like a permanent stench that never leaves. I liked smoking outside personally

The politicians like to do *things*. not the right things, not the important things, just *things*. This makes them feel busy and important, and keeps them in the minds of people.
Because as we all very well know, there's really nothing they CAN do about the situation in the above photo. They can't really control people that don't want to be controlled... but those who want more control generally don't give a fuck about the people who really need help and focus on their BS problems (ie: my apartment is close to someone who smokes).
Smokers are treated like second class citizens. Crazy.
I don't even get how someone can be so close as to smell so much smoke that it impedes their everyday life or enjoyment of their condo. Unless you're sharing a bunk bed, that makes little to no sense.

I don't understand how, if you're the owner, they can tell you not to smoke in your own apt? Seems fucked up.
- how would they enforce such a thing?Jnr_Madison
- through bullshit finesmatt31

it is fucked - i might not be able to smoke in my apartment, yet the local and provincial government ignores the problems shown in the above photo. our politicians are some of the biggest hypocrites out there.
