dc.description.abstractWalking the old city streets of southern France is indeed as picturesque and romantic as it sounds, passing by small cafes filled with locals and tourists alike, all enjoying a coffee, a pastry, and almost always, a cigarette. Smoking cigarettes is an activity deeply rooted in the French culture, as it a social way to gather among friends to relax and enjoy one another's company. However, France is no exception to the global tobacco epidemic, and in recent years the country has seen many new regulations and campaigns to encourage French smokers to kick the habit. This study dives into different issues surrounding the tobacco industry in France including designated smoking areas, packaging regulations, taxation, and contraband sales. These will be contrasted to smoking regulations in Canada and will provide insight as to what degree big tobacco companies will feel the impact of recent waves of anti-smoking movements.
