Canadian Teens Find Other Ways to Have Fun

So apparently Canadian teens are no longer smoking. According to a new PSA campaign from the Department of Health and Wellness in the Province of Nova Scotia, Canada, only about 15% of Canadian teens are still smoking tobacco. This campaign, which is named "15 and Falling," utilizes their website to host a collaborative forum of YouTube links about other things that have gone from popularity to “suckitude.” Their website even uses a creative message to get their point across:
Sooner or later, everything begins to suck. Bands, TV shows, clothes. It’s a universal law that nothing stays cool forever. As teen smoking’s popularity continues to drop, so too does the popularity of other things. This is where we celebrate their suckitude.
They also have developed a couple of TV spots and a Facebook fan page to integrate with this campaign. One of the TV spots, which i have posted below, shows what Canadian teens are doing now that they no longer smoke. Here is a hint, fart jokes are always funny, no matter how many times you see them. Enjoy!
