Recently
I traveled to Canada, Vancouver, I saw an interesting thing to smoke wasn’t
allowed inside any place and if a person would like smoking have to get out
outside and to smoke five meter far from the door. Even in bars and nightclub
this law is follow. I thought it could be equal in Brazil, in that time the opposite
situation was true here.
For my
surprise when I was back the government
was voting a new law against to smoke in close environment. A great discussion
was around the topic because smokers didn’t like it and nonsmokers loved it,
such as me.
Once I went in a
restaurant without smoking restriction, it was terrible , I have rhinitis so I
had a big headache, at the end I was smelling cigarette and I wasn’t satisfied
with this environment, I have never understood why didn’t have a law about
smoking in a close place.
I guess smokers
maybe will have difficulty to follow the new rule but I believe everybody has
been winning health, now São Paulo is in an international health level and it’s
just a little part from others things that our government can do to our quality
of life.
