Across Canada, smoking laws will have to be updated by next July to deal with legalized pot

In about ten months, a loophole will open in some of Canada’s smoking laws which will annoy some and delight others.

Over the last generation, governments at all levels across Canada have steadily restricted smoking tobacco.

B.C.’s Tobacco and Vapour Products Control Act does what it says on the label, as does Alberta’s Tobacco and Smoking Reduction Act, which begins by saying that ” … ‘smoke’ means to smoke, hold or otherwise have control over a lit tobacco product.”

Ontario’s Smoke-Free Ontario Act doesn’t deal with smoking anything other than tobacco (though a series of amendments, not yet in force, cover marijuana).

Local governments vary in their approach. Toronto’s smoking bylawcovers “… the carrying of a lighted cigar or cigarette, pipe or any other lighted material,” which could cover a joint if need be. Ottawa’s only refers to tobacco.
