Ontario is also the nationâs wealthiest province, having a substantial share of the countryâs natural resources and its most mature and diversified industrial economy. It is at once Canadaâs economic pacemaker and a major force in national politics.
Mouth, Gums and Throat â Tobacco use can cause bad breath, tooth decay, cavities, stained teeth and gum disease. There is also a risk of getting cancer in the mouth, gums and throat, especially among smokeless tobacco users (who chew or suck on tobacco) and cigar smokers (who often hold the smoke in their mouth).
Long term exposure of the lungs to the irritants in tobacco smoke destroys the normal lung structure. The elastic walls of the small airways within the lungs are broken down. This reduces the amount of lung tissue available for the transfer of oxygen from the air to the blood.
