In a couple of years it is quite possible that it will be legal to smoke-up in Canada..... how is the fratenity (particularly Canadian chapters) supposed to handle this?

Brother Cooper,
If it comes down to this, aren't we really posing a moral or ethical, but not a legal issue? I would have to be gaurded in saying Intl. would have, not by choice, very little to say on the subject.
Here in the States, alcohol consumption is legal for any person over the age of 21. Can HQ punish any brother over the legal age for responsibly enjoying a drink? I would think not. (please note, I did add the word responsibly.)
I could see strong opinion, one way or the other at Zeta level. I could also see increased inusrance premiums for Zetas in locales where smoking would be legalized.
When I was still playing the Fortune 500 game, the first step in filing an on-the-job injury claim was a mandatory drug and alchohol screening to make sure you weren't the the cause of your own accident. I could see this trickling down from HQ as a sound liability policy.
I fully expect to see a range of replies to this post.
In ZAX,
