Not too long ago, cigarettes were everywhere. Lighting up in a restaurant, on a flight, or even in a doctor’s office was just part of the smoky fabric of Canadian life. Until it wasn’t.

What does our culture’s current addiction to smartphones have in common with cigarettes?

GUEST: Richard Warnica, business reporter and opinions writer for the Toronto Star
