Glen Derksen Smoking dilemna
19 September 2011 | 3 replies
If it is in yours then likely it is in theirs as well.If it doesn't say in yours then likely it's not in theirs.I can't give legal advice but rather than suffer in silence I would call the landlord and explain you have sensitive lungs and cannot be inhaling in second hand smoke.Second hand smoke is actually MORE DANGEROUS than first hand smoke.The reason is the person smoking the cigarette has a filter before inhaling in and the second hand smoker breathes all the smoke in without a filter.Today's cigarettes are pumped full of chemicals because it is cheaper to make and the burn is faster.The faster the burn the more people will smoke and buy that next pack with a huge mark up.Back in the day smoking was almost all pure tobacco but it is so expensive they use chemicals and very little tobacco today.So in short don't put up with it.
