This message has been forwarded by Smoke-Free Nova Scotia. Your support would be greatly appreciated, either by attending council on Nov. 19 or by sending an e-mail/fax/phone call/letter to council members. I have included the e-mail addresses for councillors. **************************************************************************** ********************************************************* The date for the public hearing on the rereal of by-law S200 has been set as Nov. 19th, 6:00 pm at council chambers. This has not yet been approved by council but is unlikely to change. There has also not been additional dates set but I have asked if this can be done. Anyway, this gives us a date to work towards and to communicate to the many, many groups and organizations that all of you are in touch with. Our aim is to have as many individuals and organizations as possible appear at the public hearing and simply say that council needs to keep By-law S200 and strengthen it to make all indoor public places 100% smoke-free. This same message needs to be going to council members through e-mail/fax/phone/letter over the next few weeks! We have a real opportunty to get a full by-law if we can generate a large volume of community support!
