  1. I'll do a search in a day or so & see if I can find out. These types of positive action stories tend to fade from the media spotlight quickly though only to be replaced by the next negative drama playing out somewhere around the city.
  2. In conjunction with upcoming Earth Day, there's a "cigarette butt" challenge that takes place every year in Toronto. The challenge is to see how many people they can get out to pick up cigarette butts in the course of the day. Their goal is to pick up 1 millions butts but to date, they have so far fallen a little short of that number. I didn't hear how many they got today yet but there was some coverage on the evening news that showed people dropping off lage plastic bags full of dirty, soggy discarded cigarette butts. Here's a link to the local story: https://www.agreenerfuture.ca/events-list/2024-butt-blitz-toronto

  5. Glad to see you back @jacobrose! Read as much as you can here and watch the videos which are available. There's a series of YouTube videos called Tobacco Wars that I thought were pretty revealing about how the tobacco industry works against us to keep us addicted and buying more of there products. It opened my eyes as to what really goes on behind the scenes in the Tobacco Industry. There's 3 episodes each about an hour long - good time waster and informative. They might just help to support your commitment to quit. Here's a link to the first episode in case you're interested:
  6. Oh cool; so they're bringing your new Koala pet with them?

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
