interesting & weird since tobacco is exhorbitantly expensive. How can poor people afford it?

Maybe you swapped the cause and effect. Instead of "How do poor people smoke" you could ask "Why are smokers poor".

And then you've already answered your question

Look at the stats on smoking and income in Canadian provinces. The two are like inverse of each other.
