and if people choose to do that that is their fault. People have known forever that smoking was not good for their health. And even if they didn't... nothing illegal was done so it is not the tobacco companies fault if someone gets cancer. If the Liberals really cared like they pretend to they would ban Tobacco instead of funding their pet projects by taxing it. Liberals need people to smoke or they won't be able to fund all the things that they are funding by taxing it. By funding Children's health care by taxing tobacco they are making it necessary for people to keep smoking... proving they don't give a damn about smoker's health. Smoking tobacco is far less healthy than smoking pot, but one is legal and one isn't. It's all hypocrisy.
So what? It is a legal substance (I don't smoke)
