every bar in Illinois is now for sale.. which is probably what the government wants.. fresh blood with new investment money to burn....
Last year, or maybe 2 years ago now all of Edmonton went smoke free. Bars were up in arms about it, how it would cost them all this money.
They made more money smoke free then they did with smoking. No one loses business because its not like you can go down the road and smoke in a different bar.

Come Jan 1, all of Alberta goes smoke free.

I think that was like 2 years ago? But in any case it was awesome. I heard talk about them doing it again, but possibly a larger amount. But also that the money might just go into Albertas infrastructure too.
