Okay, so maybe a 13-year-old hitting up the local tanning salon (do they call them salons?) every week. And yes, I'll agree that most people who fake tan too much look like they are of nasty orange leather. And yes, teens don't, or shouldn't, have enough cash to spend on fake tans.
But...
Is Alex Cullen so bored that legislating tanning bed use is an absolute must? Seriously man, set some priorities. This guy wants to be mayor and this is the kind of thing he wants to make headlines for?
Though some have argued that this is for the kids' own good, it is not anything like the smoking ban in Ottawa. Cigarettes are bad for you. Tanning obviously isn't an awesome thing to do constantly, but the evidence isn't strong enough yet to support banning it for anyone under 18. It's just another example of politicians with God complexes trying to tell people how to live. There are more important issues, give it up!
