Can I smoke on a bar or restaurant terrace?
Not automatically. Patio restrictions vary by province and municipality; consult the local rule above.
Why is an airport smoking area not shown?
A named airport does not prove that an accessible smoking area is currently available. Place2Smoke lists only locations supported by its existing Place evidence and publication requirements.
Do the same distance rules apply everywhere?
No. A distance from a doorway is different from a distance from the perimeter of a restaurant patio. Always check the reference point and local rules.
