A law forbidding smoking in bars, cafes, and restaurants went full blast in Paris, France after the 11 month grace period. This is to continue the last year’s campaign against smoking in schools, hospitals, offices, airports and other public places.

Closed chambers however were built so as to accommodate smokers. A fine of $93 for the smokers and $198 for the venue and establishments will be imposed upon seeing anyone lighting a cigar in the public places.

Café owners however were worried about their businesses and said that some people will loose their jobs because the establishment’s sales will decline.
