Tasmania is set to become the first Australian state or territory to enforce indoor smoking bans in drinking establishments at midnight AEDT tonight.
Many people would not regard this as progressive, but I do. And it makes me think of the many ways Tasmania has changed. It went from the state of Australia with the most oppressive anti-gay laws to the most progressive in a heartbeat. It's still the only state in which the cultivation of opium and the production of heroin is legal (but controlled). True.
