    Wolfville Nova Scotia is now the toughest anti-smoking community in Canada. It recently enacted a bylaw that forbids smoking inside a vehicle, given a certain condition. What is the prerequisite?

    Wolfville, N.S., is known for being quiet and picturesque, but soon it might also be known for having one of the toughest anti-smoking bylaws in North America.

    The small town is set to become the first municipality in Canada to ban smoking in vehicles when a child is present.

    No Smoking in Vehicles with Children Present Bylaw
    On Monday November 19th, Wolfville Town Council unanimously approved second reading of Bylaw #89, cited as "Smoke Free Vehicles Bylaw." This bylaw will protect children and youth eighteen years of age and under from the harmful effects of second hand smoke in vehicles. Under this bylaw, which will come into effect June 1, 2008, violators could face fines from $50 to $200. Leading up to the enactment of the Smoke Free Vehicles Bylaw, the Town of Wolfville will be working with the local Smoke Free Kings organization to develop and implement a comprehensive education campaign to promote the importance of a smoke free environment.
