Canada has had VERY graphic images on cigarette packages for a number of years now. It depends on who you talk to about the effectiveness of them.
Non-smokers are appalled; smokers for the most part indifferent. Everyone knows how deadly smoking can be, yet the habit is for some, impossible to break free of.
I was a long time smoker, and even after all that I've gone through I've had my moments where the insanity of it all breaks through and I think " oh, how much I USED to enjoy smoking"
It's a very hard thing to break away from; it's not must the physical addiction, it's the physcological side that is so enduring. We all started smoking for a variety of reasons, none good. getting off the smokes and staying that way is the tough part
