Calgary councillors consider ban on smoking, vaping in parks and on pathways

Smoking and vaping may soon be banned in all Calgary parks and on pathways. City council is debating this week a bylaw that would ban smoking and vaping in these areas. The city’s administration is proposing the changes following consultation with Calgarians over the past three years. Special events like festivals will be able to apply to have designated smoking areas. As well, the bylaw would allow for designated smoking areas to be permanently installed in some parks.
