CRD should ban smoking in housing

Re: “Smoking banned in region’s parks,” Oct. 10. Why can’t the Capital Regional District ban smoking on CRD properties? Smoking is still permitted in all CRD housing facilities. The CRD needs to look after its own facilities first.

The CRD needs to look after its own facilities first. Children (and adults) in these housing complexes are continually exposed to secondhand smoke, which is a serious health hazard. Doesn’t make much sense to me.

Nobody ever asks them this question and we never get any answers.
