[QUOTE="ontariopiper, post: 447850, member: 3775"] Here in Ontario, the legal age to purchase tobacco is 19, same as alcohol, so the proposed WA legislation seems more or less in line. I take your point, though, Brewdude. It is a bit puzzling that our kids are legally adults at 18, can vote and die for their respective countries, but are considered somehow too immature to buy alcohol or tobacco. Then again, also here in Ontario a kid can't be given a zero grade for not turning in an assignment in high school. There's a mandated minimum grade of 30% - so we don't damage a kid's self-esteem with a zero.... :fpalm: :fpalm: :fpalm: There was actually an article in the paper recently that laid out how the high schools are failing miserably to prepare kids for the realities of university/college. Ugh. Sorry for the hijack there. Getting back on track, at least if the legislation passes in WA, you'll know that any guy you see with a pipe is a REAL man who can do what the rest of us do - vote in the elections and then go home to drink away the foul taste! :P :lol: :D [/QUOTE]
