I guess all the restaurants will have to sell lots of alcoholic drinks. Just lower the prices of them and have constant specials on them - like our local Mexican rest. has dollar Margaritas on Thurs. night and the place is packed and everyone is drinking loads of Margaritas. The NY restaurants will have to really push the adult beverages until 60% of their profits are from drinks, rather than food. Most restaurants here claim they make their money on drinks anyway, and not on food. That is why our little town can't attract a decent restaurant, even though Houston is 45 min. away and has loads of them. They won't come here because we are a DRY town and they make most of their money on adult drinks. Just get all those NY restaurants to get all their patrons really sloshed - the city should just Love That! HA

It's good to see somebody fighting back, they did fight in Ottawa, but all judges are liberal appointees...... so there goes justice.

I have never smoked even one, single, solitary cigarette in my life, and I think everyone who does, should quit, but that is their freedom, to smoke or not to smoke. It's about freedom, and I am glad to see these people fight back.

Thanks, Mark! Tobacco has been and still is a legal commodity. With all the smoking bans, you wonder why they just don't pull cigarettes off the shelves and ban the darn stuff. However, the anti's are making to much money to do something like that! The more grief they cause the smoker, the more money they receive. It's pitiful.

"...they did fight in Ottawa..."

I suspect that the bars/nightclubs in Hull are even busier now than they were when Ontario had last call at 1 am. Shame. The Market was a fun place.

I'm glad to see that some places are starting to take it to court.
Of course, if the antis think they will lose in court they will drop everything like a hot potato.
The antis wouldn't want a, to them, bad precedent in the courts.

Exactly why they dropped their lawsuit against OSHA trying to force a "no safe level"of SHS indoors.

They had to drop the suit, because OSHA would have come up with a safe level - antis can not afford to have something like that out in the public domain.

Yes Hull is doing darn good business, so much that Ottawa is trying to talk them into a ban.... don't think it will happen, too many Quebeckers smoke.
Funny, the fanatics claims Ottawa bars and restaurants are doing great.
