Heavy smoking by two condo owners in Someplace, B.C. has compelled a strata council to take drastic measures. An owner with severe allergies had been told by his doctor he must live in a smoke-free environment and several other owners had been muttering about preferring to live in a smoke-free building.

He found an apartment with lots of potential in a great building, moved in and grabbed the first available seat on the strata council.
