In regard to the Outdoor Smoking BY-LAW NO. 62/2011, We,the undersigned, sign this petition to extend the by-law to non-city owned property such as the universities/colleges, entrances to malls/office buildings, public parks and green spaces for the health protection of children and non-smoking adults.

Someone else's poor choices should not affect the health and well-being of others.

We, the undersigned, request that smoking in public should be prohibited within 10 meters (30 ft) of a public entrance when:

• The building has only one public entrance/exit, not counting emergency exits and service entrances;
  
• or Where the building has more than one designated public entrance, where an entrance other than the primary building entrances, is not clearly marked as an approved location for smoking.
  

• On all privately owned, public use, outdoor patio's (such as those owned by restaurants and bars) that do not have a designated smoking area, which the designated area must be less than 20% of the available seating or square footage, where seating is not provided;
  
• In all public parks and public green spaces, unless a designated smoking area is provided, regardless of it a youth event is taking place; and
  
• Within 10 meters of a bus stop.
