The non-smoking laws don't apply to them because those laws are provincial laws and they are sitting on federal land. Another example of this is that the federal government is exempt from paying taxes to provincial or municipal bodies. So the federal government doesn't have to pay property taxes to Ottawa despite having a ton of property in the city.
