VAPING NEWS: CANADA

“The Council of Chief Medical Officers of Health has decided that warning people about vaping during Canada’s National Non-Smoking Week is just the thing to help reduce tobacco related disease. While saying “smoking continues to pose a significant risk”, the council is keen that smokers only quit using traditional approaches that failed to work for millions until the advent of electronic cigarettes. Instead, the council recommends Canada bans “all flavoured vaping products”, regulates “a minimum set of flavours to support smokers” and places a limit on “the nicotine content in vaping products, including pods, to a maximum of 20mg/ml”. It also wants to limit the performance of mods and regulate power delivery and the use of nicotine salts. It wants to see punitive sin taxes applied to vaping products, limit use to over-21s, and carry out enhanced “surveillance and reporting of vaping product use”.”
