“The age to purchase tobacco and electronic smoking devices on P.E.I. will increase to 21 as of March 1 of this year. In the letter the province describes a “transition period,” meaning anyone who turned 19 before March 1 will still be allowed to purchase the products. The letter also states that as of March 1, electronic smoking or vape products can only be sold in “tobacconist shops,” described as an “age-restricted location” where, “at least 50 per cent\u00a0of the retailer’s product display space is devoted to the sale of tobacco, electronic smoking devices, or a combination of both.” Restrictions on vape flavours will not come into effect immediately, according to the letter. On Tuesday, the province posted on its website a draft copy of an amendment to the regulations for the Tobacco and Electronic Smoking Devices Sales and Access Act. That document, labelled “consultation draft,” would prohibit the sale of any flavouring agent “added to tobacco or an electronic smoking device to produce an aroma or taste other than the aroma or taste of tobacco, including the aroma or taste of candy, chocolate, fruit, a spice, an herb, an alcoholic beverage, vanilla or menthol.”<\/span><\/p>\n
