Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch

During an extraordinary online event last week, decision-makers at Health Canada responsible for regulating nicotine vaping products delivered a presentation to explain how vaping regulations are decided, drafted, and developed in Canada.

The webinar organized by the vaping advocacy group Rights 4 Vapers sought to provide perspective and insight into Health Canada’s proposed national flavour ban.
Joining us today for reaction to the event are hosts Maria Papaioannoy-Duic from Rights 4 Vapers and Christina Xydous from the Quebec-based vaping rights group CDVQ.

Did the event present a positive step forward in the fight to save flavours? Did Health Canada sufficiently acknowledge vapers’ many fears and concerns over the proposed flavour ban? Will this event make a difference?

Innokin’s “Why Smoke?” vaping campaign hits the streets of London

London, UK – Innokin presents its “Why Smoke?” campaign in London, featuring branded buses, vans, and projection displays on buildings throughout the city.

Innokin is proud to create a vaping awareness campaign in the UK for the first time in two years. The “Why Smoke?” campaign is meant to make us think about our habits, even just for a moment. The campaign aims to inform smokers that there is an accessible, less harmful option to traditional cigarettes.

Advertising vaping products is a challenging task. There are many regulatory considerations, and this can make it very difficult to deliver a compelling message. Innokin is investing in vaping advocacy through a combination of traditional and innovation-led channels, intending to start an honest conversation about tobacco harm reduction.

Innokin’s “Why Smoke?” campaign begins November 26^th.  Mobile billboards will travel throughout north and central London for four days, stopping in prominent areas to reach thousands of people each day. The mobile billboards introduce Innokin’s message to people all over the city.

On November 28^th, large mobile projections will display impactful messages on iconic London buildings over two days. The projection locations were selected based on high foot traffic in densely populated areas. The projections are a mix of vaping awareness messages and promotional displays for the MVP Pod, Innokin’s newest vaping device.

On November 29^th, Innokin’s traditional media campaign begins. The “Why Smoke?” message, along with promotional displays for the brand new MVP Pod, will appear on five-hundred buses throughout the British capital for two weeks. Garnering the general public’s attention is crucial to helping smokers transition to vaping.

Innokin has run promotional campaigns in the UK before. Previously, the vaping giant has partnered with the EFL to promote displays in football stadiums throughout the country and created two successful bus campaigns. Innokin is determined to help millions of smokers, not just in the UK but worldwide. Making cigarettes a thing of the past continues to be the firm’s priority. “Why Smoke?” is just the beginning of Innokin’s mission to create a smoke-free future.

Innokin is proud to create a brand new vaping awareness campaign in the UK this year, running from Nov 29th till Dec 12th.

Innokin is presenting its “Why Smoke?” campaign in London, featuring branded buses, vans, and projection displays on buildings throughout the city. The “Why Smoke?” message, along with promotional displays for the brand new MVP Pod, will appear on 500 buses throughout the British capital for two weeks. Innokin is determined to help millions of smokers, not just in the UK but worldwide. Making cigarettes a thing of the past is an important message to spread across worldwide. “Why Smoke?” is just the beginning of Innokins mission to create a smoke-free future.

It’s Time To Get VERY Loud!

On Friday, November 19th, the U.S. House of Representatives passed President Biden’s spending package bill referred to as the “Build Back Better” bill.

The original draft of the bill contained increases in the federal cigarette tax and tobacco tax rates, as well as increases to those of eliquid and alternative nicotine products. However, the bill was amended before passing the House vote, and the proposed increases on cigarette and tobacco taxes were removed from the legislation.

The new version of the bill still includes a tax on nicotine-containing e-liquids and alternative nicotine products, such as synthetic nicotine.

Specifically, Biden’s “Build Back Better” bill assesses a tax of $50.33 per 1,810 milligrams of taxable nicotine, which threatens to significantly increase product costs.

This bill is dangerous and cannot be allowed to pass!

We are asking you to speak up for yourselves and to encourage your patrons to do the same. To assist you, we have included ready-to-use graphics below.

We need your support – even if you already acted on this bill. Continuously applied pressure is required, and that means we do not relent until the tax is removed!

The study determined for the first time that the use of reduced-risk products can significantly reduce nicotine addiction, especially in the presence of harmful behavioural aspects.
