A letter campaign argues Roblin could become the Smoking Capital of Canada by promoting smoking in all public places. Advocates urge hotels, restaurants, stores, banks, and schools to allow smoking, framing it as a rights issue and a boost to the town’s identity.
A proposal imagines turning Roblin into a smoker friendly town with slogans like Yellow Butt Route and Haze Days. Ideas include cigarette themed highway signs, smokers rebates on property taxes, and promoting Roblin to attract truckers, tourists, and new residents despite health concerns.
The Dugans plan to rent their RoBlin area home for about 550 dollars a month to run as a bed and breakfast or getaway with access to nearby recreational resources including a view of Lake of the Prairies. They prefer preserving the house and may consider selling later.
