Anti-Smokers in our Area

Yikes! Fire pits have caused all sorts of complaints in our area (Waterloo Region - Cambridge, Kitchener and Waterloo) that they are now banned in all areas except Kitchener - which will shortly follow.
I understand fire pits, as they can get out of control, but now they may also push to ban smokers for cooking food.

Interesting that they are targeting smokers only, because I see a lot of smoke coming from the gas BBQ nearby.
May have a decision to make. Move or sell the Egg. I guess I'll start packing. :laugh:

Ruggle said fire prevention is looking at expanding the bylaw to ensure it takes in other potentially dangerous or nuisance outdoor burns — specifically smoking food and wood burning pool heaters.

There would be a bunch of unemployed politicians if they tried that anywhere in North Carolina.

Dave,
The egg produces a lot less smoke than a regular pit or a gasser. Lump in = smoke out. Cambridge has always been a reactionary town.

That's UnAmerican!...oh yeah, it's Canada. :P
Sounds a bit overboard for sure. Smoke from a neighbor's firepit forcing a child out of their room? Sounds like a kid who doesn't want to go to bed when told. :laugh: -

I don't think they could pull that off anywhere in the southeast!

I guess only comment can be, sad place and sad people! Where ever it might be, we should reflect on the fact that the whole world is changing for the worse. Not just there. By the way, salt is good for you this week! next week who knows! Sorry guys, but it is disturbing!
