What our beloved governments have done correctly is prosecute the war on tobacco.
The Vancouver Sun's Barbara Jaffe this morning has some interesting stats on the smoking wars.
In 1965 49 per cent of Canadian adults smoked; today the number is 18 per cent and only 15 per cent of the 15 to 19 year olds puff. Americans are at 21 per cent, the Brits at 25 per cent and 60, that is S I X T Y per cent of Russian men smoke. "According to the British Heart Foundation, 30 per cent of the French smoke, 35 per cent of the Dutch and 37 per cent of Germans."
Tobacco of course is the only product that if used the way you are supposed to use it will kill you.
Just a bit of FYI pour vous from me.
