The prisons in the Canadian province of Quebec enforce a ban on smoking. With no cigarettes, the inmates have resorted to creative solutions. In place of tobacco, some use a mixture of tea leaves and residue from the nicotine gum provided to help smokers kick the addiction.

The concoction is rolled up in a page from the Bible. The Bible is used because those pages reportedly burn slower than normal paper.

An inmate named Robert told reporters, "I smoked Matthew. I smoked Mark. I smoked Luke. When I got to John, I read about how God loves me. Now I don't smoke, because now I am a Christian."
