I’m truly relating to how you feel, in Canada where I live cannabis is legal and this has opened another problem for me. People are smoking and vaping in their homes and on their balconies day and night and even if I keep my windows closed it gets inside my apartment. It’s not just the drugs, cigarettes are another issue here and I’m constantly plagued by their pollution. I’ve tried sending polite notes to them but they’re totally disregarded, they feel that they’re not breaking any laws so my efforts are ignored. Of course I can always move but the rents here are very high and I pay a little less because I’ve been living here for a long time, I can’t afford to move because I’m on a fixed income so I sometimes feel trapped. My health is not great and I have respiratory problems so it’s very difficult to survive here. The landlord doesn’t help because they aren’t breaking any rules and most newcomers pay higher rents than I do. This is an ongoing problem with no resolution in sight and it truly causes me to feel very helpless and hopeless.
