Quizplus · Accepted Answer

China has the highest smoking prevalence rates in the world, with over 300 million smokers. The high prevalence rates of smoking are likely to result in the most lung cancer deaths in the next 20 years. Urban cities in Canada and France, while having moderate smoking rates, have stricter tobacco control policies, which may lead to lower lung cancer death rates. Rural communities in Canada have lower smoking rates than urban areas, but the population is generally smaller, which may result in fewer lung cancer deaths overall.
