The relationship between these two sides wasn't_ always so adversarial, but with tens of thousands of people dying each year from smoking-related health problems and with the effects of second hand smoke becoming more well-known, governments are beginning to take strong action against tobacco manufac -~' turers and the people who choose to light up. LOCAL LAWS Since January 1, 2000, Waterloo Region has been smoke-free in all of its restaurants, bars, bingo halls, bowling alleys, arenas and other enclosed public spaces. At least, that's the way it's sup posed to be. The last phase of a public-smoking ban that started in 1996 has had mixed results. The region's health department reports the majority of premises are complying by putting up signs and removing ashtrays- 40 of 1,100 visited by the health department are not. The information/snitch line (883-2279) has received about 600 calls since January 1 (most of which are supportive) and the health department will be hiring two more officers to enforce the bylaw. At the same time, about 130 area businesses have signed up for a legal campaign to have the bylaw eased. Even though businesses must post signs and remove ashtrays, some have put out flower pots, bottles and other trays for smokers to use. People have also been ignoring the almost all municipalities, provinces and issue of Maclean's magazine, which law at restaurants and bars, knowing states have some form of smoking legis focussed on health statistics across bylaw officers won't really be enforcing lation.
