No-Smoking Policy


Purpose
Canadore College is committed to providing a healthy learning environment for all members of the community at each campus location.

Policy
1. All internal locations on college-owned and leased property will be smoke-free.

  • The Canadore College Residence will work to ensure the health and well being of all residence students and institute a multi-year plan to become smoke free, effective August 1, 2004
2. Smoking will be limited to outdoor designated locations at each campus, effective August 1, 2003.
  • Designated outdoor locations will not be located at entrances, exits, mechanically operated windows and intake vents.
3. This policy acknowledges the Tobacco Control Act, section 13 under which it makes exemption for the use of tobacco by Aboriginal people for traditional cultural purposes. Canadore College recognizes Tobacco, Sage, Sweetgrass and Cedar as traditional medicines for ceremonial purposes to promote unity, friendship and support. Aboriginal programming develops respect and knowledge of the sacred medicines which are essential to building an enhanced understanding of Indigenous peoples of Canada.

Definition
