  • Lakelands Public Health Enforcing Smoke-Free Laws at Local Arenas and Recreational Centre Properties

    (November 26th, 2025) – As winter approaches and local arenas are once again full of athletes, parents and fans alike, Lakelands Public Health is reminding residents and visitors that the Smoke-Free Ontario Act, 2017 (SFOA) prohibits smoking or vaping on or within 20 metres of all arena property, not just doors. Throughout the year, Tobacco Enforcement Officers (TEOs) from Lakelands Public Health enforce the SFOA throughout the region - with the change of the season, TEOs will be providing additional enforcement at arenas.

    Smoke and vape-free spaces also create positive social norms which prevent youth from starting to smoke or vape in the first place. Among those who do smoke, nearly half report wanting to quit; smoke-free spaces have also been shown to help people with their quit attempts.


    How to Report Smoking on Recreational Property
    To report smoking on recreational property please speak to a Tobacco Control Officer by calling us at 1-844-575-4567. We accept and investigate anonymous complaints.
