"We wanted to extend and update our smoking policy to ensure that we have a healthy campus and part of that was to ensure that we didn't have any smoking on the campus," said Kelly Hannah-Moffat, the university's vice-president of human resources and equity.
"The policy that we currently have is decades old.
"The university's smoking policy was last updated in 1995.The details of the policy on designated smoking spots will be left up to each campus but these designated spots for people who "feel the need to smoke,"At the same time, the university will make smoking cessation services and programs available to staff and students to help them quit.
Hannah-Moffat said there is no time set for how long the policy will run, but the university will review it in a year.The ban will make the university one of more than 65 Canadian colleges and universities to go smoke-free.
