Not to get too far off topic, but I have tried politely asking smokers to move, and it never ends well. If someone is knowingly violating social norms, reminding them of that usually just results in aggression. Like the guys who play music loudly over their phone at the back of the bus. I tried to get a GRT driver to respond once (to a woman who literally told me "Yeah I know I'm not supposed to smoke here, but you can't stop me, so I'm going to keep doing it") and their attitude was that by the time enforcement arrived, the person would have moved on anyway. Personally I don't want to risk being assaulted when I'm just trying to get to work in the morning.
If/when this happens once the new shelters are up, I'll try to get some photographic evidence and find an official who cares... your suggestion about the Regional Health Officials seems worthwhile. This is a problem created by the hospital's decisions, I think they should be involved in fixing it.
