CCS encourages smokers to come in from the cold The Canadian Cancer Society wants to help smokers to come in from the cold. As more municipali- ties across Ontario adopt anti-smok- ing bylaws, smokers are feeling the impact. The Canadian Cancer Society's Smokers' Helpline can provide support to help make quit- ting easier — and winter warmer! "We understand how difficult it is for smokers who are not only coping with a powerful addiction but are now finding themselves smoking outside of public and work places," said Ted Wheatley, past president and chair, public issues, Canadian Cancer Society, Ontario Division. "Most smokers have also got the message and understand that quitting would benefit their health." The Canadian Cancer Society advocates strongly for legislation that protects people from second- hand smoke. Studies have shown that exposure to secondhand smoke increases a person's risk of cancer and other ill- nesses. Health Canada ranks smok- ing and exposure to secondhand smoke as the first and third leading causes of preventable death in Canada. Today, 45,000 smokers die prematurely each year due to smok- ing. "By restricting tobacco use, help- ing people quit, and promoting health messages, we will save lives", said Wheatley. "We know that more that one million people will be think- ing about quitting smoking in the next six months — it's important they know that help is a phone call away." The Canadian Cancer Society's Smolcers' Helpline (1-877-513-5333 — available in Ontario only) offers information, advice and support. Calls are answered by trained Quit Specialists who provide personal- ized support that makes quitting eas- ier and with more chance of success. Jan. 20 - 26 is National Non- Smoking Week and Weedless Wednesday is Jan. 23. The Canadian Cancer Society, Ontario Division supports the Ontario Tobacco-free Network's theme: "Go For Gold — Become 100 per cent Smoke- free!" Tobacco-free councils and organi- zations across the province are chal- lenging their local municipalities to adopt bylaws that prevent smoking in public places. A map displaying existing 100 per cent smoke-free municipalities can be viewed at www.theom.org The Canadian Cancer 'Society leads the way in the fight against cancer. The Canadian Cancer Society funds research on all types of cancer, offers comprehensive and credible information on cancer, treatment and risk reduction, and' provides support for people living with cancer.
