Is there really any question? There's no doubt about it: smoking pollutes your body and takes years off your life. Cigarettes are very addictive, very expensive and very unpleasant for those around you. If you do smoke and have thought about quitting, prove to yourself you can do it. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication, but you can live smoke-free if you try. 1 Halton Hills Dr., Halton Hills, ON L7G 5G2 Tel.: 905-873-2601 Fax: 905-873-2347
