'Brokeback' Canadian Town Copies Hotel Smoking Ban

Our neighbors to the North in a small town in Alberta, Canada called Canmore where Jake and Heath filmed the gay cowyboy romp, "Brokeback Mountain", are implementing a smoking ban starting October 2.

So if your travel plans take you to this place around then, make sure to put your butts out. Although the hotels are concerned that it might not be enough time to get rid of all the smoke smells and damage. Oh yeah, and all the smokers.

Coun. John Borrowman said he was a little concerned about the Oct. 2 starting date, indicating [hotels] may need more time to honour advance bookings of rooms in which smoking is currently permitted.

Yet it looks like October 2 still stand, although probably with some heavy potpurri smells emanating from the hotels.
