Pierre Trudeau, who proclaimed that the state had no place in the nations' bedrooms, must be turning in his grave at the news that the state now has the right to police our kitchens. After all, a kitchen is even more of a workplace than the cab of a truck.
So when you hear that knock on your door some evening while you're preparing dinner, make sure you're not smoking. As for smoking in your basement workshop, be afraid. Be very afraid.
