Sign the Petition Against Plain Packaging in Canada
The Federal Government is proposing Plain Packaging in Canada. This costly measure will prove virtually useless in an already Blacked Out market and will affect both pricing and availability of YOUR FAVOURITE CIGARS and TOBACCO. Please sign and share this petition and let them know what you think.

I.P.S.D. 2016 Long Smoke Results
Today we celebrated I.P.S.D. with our Annual Long Smoke with a total of 12 competitors. Each person was provided with a straight corn-cob pipe (the use of the filter was optional), a pipe nail, 3 grams of Director’s Cut, a sheet of paper, and 2 matches. Each person was given 5 minutes to pack their pipes, while they were only given 1 minute to get the pipes lit using only the 2 matches. After the 1 minute, no additional lighting was allowed.
The bowls have been packed, lit, and smoked. The results are now in! In order of finishing:
- Assaad 1:03:26.18
- Kenny 53:07.92
- Larry 41:15.36
- John 39:28.38
- Nicole 33:35.32
- Derrick 33:04.28
- Stewart 32:49.77
- John 31:50.30
- Bruce 27:48.32
- Robert 23:22.75
- Nelson 19:53.38
- Dale 19:01.52
We are very proud of all participants, but especially of Assaad, a first time competitor who came within just under 4 minutes of our record time set by Nathaniel last year. A big thank you goes out to all participants and we look forward to the next year’s Long Smoke.
John with his prize for being first out: A jar of matches!
Kenny with his ounce for coming in 2nd Place
Our 2016 Champion: Assaad!
