Meet Toni, a strong supporter of smoke-free patios.Toni has worked in the restaurant industry for more than 30 years and as a result, developed lung disease from second-hand smoke exposure. In the late 90’s, his health scare prompted him to open up the first smoke-free coffee shop in the ByWard Market.Toni now owns two smoke-free restaurants, “Firkin and Knight” and “Firkin and Flyer”. He was one of the restaurant owners that made his patios smoke-free voluntarily, before the regulations came into effect. Toni is confident that Ottawa’s new smoke-free patio regulations will create a better and healthier environment for those who enjoy dining outdoors. To learn more about Ottawa’s new smoke-free regulations, or if you need help quitting smoking, please visit ottawa.ca/smokefree, Twitter (@ophsmokefree) or call 3-1-1. read more..
