Google search E-cig Bans for your local area and any place you intend to travel.
Crappy laws are springing up all over, backed by useless Excuses in most cases. But, the Law is the Law. Welcome to Society Rule.
Be careful with drippers and subohm vaping in hotels. I vape like a chimney in hotels, but rarely over 12-13w. If I subohm, it is only @ 30w and nowhere near the detector.Wow, maybe I've been lucky so far. I travel a lot and vape in my hotel room all the time.

If you set off the alarm, the entire hotel is evacuated, the fire truck comes and the firefighters check your room. Not something anyone wants to deal with.
Ummm... no they aren't. Canada is a big country made up of many provinces and the provinces have jurisdiction on Health related matters like smoking and vaping. Also, cities and towns can pass their own laws banning vaping indoors if they want.
Dang. I can't even vape at Denny's anymore. I guess I could understand if you are making clouds, but I do that away from crowds. Now most places are just adding "ecigs" to no smoking policies. Hmmm. Wonder about Waffle House. LOL
Same way south of your boarder. States, Counties, Cities all passing what ever they please.
I smell something rotten 
Oh right, not all of Canada. Just the part of it I'm in.
the thing is i can barely find any actually laws...most of what i can find that pertain to that are just from laweekly or blogs or something...no actual laws i can find atleast in LA....virtually any place i've ever been to in LA doesn't have a no e-cig sign (which is understandable)...i see a list of bans on wiki....but i've honestly grown to be weary of wiki as reliable source of info...
wiki link of bans in the US if you'd like to see though:

I recall a design review at my former place of employment where a senior scientist (physicist with a PhD) became alarmed and enraged that a lab experiment was releasing trace amounts of nitrogen ...
Many people still equate air with oxygen, and believe nitrogen to be "poisonous" ...
No wonder they think that vapor = smoke ...
I hate being such a downer but with all the rules and regulations flying fast and furious regarding vaping, I generally only vape where smoking is allowed.
well i just found out vaping is virtually not allowed anywhere in Cali virtually that smoking isn't but alot of states don't have any laws...or only certain cities have a few regulations...cali's a big state and a boisterous pop...i can understand the rapid regulations put....
i actually just went to a cafe during the day and just started to vape while hooked up to my laptop no one said anything til an old lady began to complain then they politely asked me to either go outside or wait for her to leave....meh : /
I am starting to see the following.
These are done as door decals, sometimes on glass portions of the doors as you go into places. I follow the twenty foot rule about such places, usually try to be finished up within 20 feet of the door. That allows courtesy. Once I'm outside and the 20 foot away the people cannot say anything further to me. I'll vape like a fox.
Think it ought to remain the choice of businesses. Can understand a clean air policy for cigarettes. To be fair and examples we vapers should follow suit with smokers. It's about clean air, courtesy more than not. Even if we are cleaner, no point arguing it to any who choose not to understand.
If it becomes too much of an issue for a vaper. You can also make a choice like the businesses make a choice. You can choose to no longer do business with the business choosing to not understand. When people start being more selective of who they associate and do business with, i.e. they do not buy crappy junk from people who disrespect trans-sexual, blacks, Protestant, Republican or what have you, businesses will soon understand loss of money. That will motivate them to make better choices. We can starve out businesses. We're the commodity they cannot replace, consumers.
Don't like the system
the system and create your own system. Not trying to sound selfish, self-absorbed. But when you see it every day and in every aspect of life, you can only fight hate with hate. And in the manner I'm choosing, I'm not fighting, I act peacefully. I want peace. I act peaceful, I expect peace. I do not prepare for war. I don't want war. I don't fight. I don't expect war. Eventually smacking hate around with itself like this will cause it to realize that it has lost. I and love win.

so, they ban e-cigs but allow cell phones and PDAs, OMG! I think I hear a BS warning siren.
My experience:
Vaping is considered the same as smoking by almost every business in my state - not sure about our law on vaping, but on e-liquid purchase, they are considered the same.
I recently set off a smoke detector while vaping in a hotel room. This hotel had Godlike sensors, apparently, as the desk clerk told me that even hot showers with the bathroom door open had set them off before. I would hesitate to vape heavily in a place like that, though
The thing is that there are still a lot of unknowns regarding e-cigs and long term exposure. Until those studies have been done, people are going to assume the worst because vaping seems so similar to smoking on the surface. Unfortunately there is no way to speed up long term studies, so in the mean time its probably best to be on the courteous/discreet side unless you want more fear-driven laws passed.
