Totally separate areas ... vapers will not be subjected to second hand smoke.

This is big ... they have been trying to tie vaping and Smoking together.

This is BG basically saying they are not the same.

Mind you, the signs have been taken down :(

But the areas are still available and separate? Just not advertised?

They took the signs down because they were put up before the announcement.

as per the map, this Government office area is quite big, there is a large Hospital for reference ... the DSAs and DVAs are very much separate from each other ... the positive I read in this, Big Gov seems to recognize they are not the same harm level.

The key point in the document, is the WHY

to provide e-cigarette users a smoke-free area and to create a supportive environment for Ontario Public Service employees to quit smoking.

did the Ontario Government just admit vaping to be a viable Smoking cessation method?

You're VERY lucky to have a government with some intelligence. Ours has forsaken us. Yes they have. But we're going to rise up against them. Yes we are!

I love hearing your personal stories. It helps us to remember Why we started vaping and that Is the most important reason to fight.

@coldgin96 I would have loved to sit and listen to your Grandma tell her stories of her life.
Thank you! I read your reply and the stories started flooding back. I had to walk away from the keyboard. We are living in their house. Sometimes it's hard. I am so honored to be living here, so, so honored.

Yeah, she used to have kids (and grownups) that were up here visiting relatives (neighbors) come over to visit. People would visit all the time, just walk in the back door and yell they were here.

I've had a couple of repairmen come over since moving in that were here before and ask, "What happened to that old couple that were here?" I tell they died, I'm the grandson. They smile, chuckle, shake their heads, "That woman was something else."

One more: She was hitchhiking home after the war and a truck driver picked her up. She had her military bag with her on her lap. The guy says to her, "You have a gun in that?" She did not but looked at him and replied, "Of course, I'm a woman traveling alone!" She said he never said another word, just stared straight ahead with both hands on the wheel until he dropped her off.

They might surprise you. Maybe they'll listen the UK Royal College of Physicians instead of the evil US FDA.

Thank you.
Sorry about your Mother as well.

Tough? Yeah, Jackie had to rip up the dining room carpet. Couldn't get the blood stains out from Grandma literally dragging herself from the bathroom @ 30 ft across the dining room to get to the phone in the living room. We don't know how long it took her but she made it there.

Ran away from home when she was 16. Ended up joining the Women's Army Air Corp. during WWII. Was a Sgt. got court marshalled down to a Private when she married my Grandfather. She requested a two week leave of absence for a honeymoon. The Army gave her one week, she took two anyway.

She had a concealed weapons permit back in the day before all these states became, "shall issue." Used to wear a Smith & Wesson 9MM on her hip when she hung up the clothes outside due to the drug house next door and being threatened.

She was something else.

Your mom and my MIL were soul sisters! She was too young to enlist in the states for WWII so she went over the border to Canada and enlisted in the Canadian WAC. My FIL was captured on D-Day and when he made it back (long amazing story), she signed a pass for herself to get off base when no one was allowed leave, going AWOL to go see him. When she returned, despite being in trouble, she managed to get another pass approved for the wedding and honeymoon! She was one tough cookie too.

They really are evil, aren't they?
Maybe not all of them, but the ones in charge are so corrupt that they are bound to be outed at some point. At least, we can hope. Otherwise, it really is time for a real revolution in America.

After a couple hour web crawl looking for answers and failing, I figure somebody around here has the know-how. If I wanted to remove black paint from a zinc-alloy mod and have it back to its base finish, what would be the best way to do it without damaging the mod itself in the process. Have a stout in need of a make over and zero experience with zinc of any type much less the alloys. And these zinc alloys, do they require a coating for protection or can they just be polished out? Thanks in advance to the metallurgists out there!:)

Oh, I wouldn't go that far!:eek:

Just because our Premier is on "your team" doesn't mean she (or any of them) have a clue. ;):D

They have flip flopped so much in the last year re: vaping, it is idiotic.

The fact your Premier is on my team shows how far ahead your country is over ours. Yes it does! :thumbs:
