Retrieved on:

Tuesday, October 31, 2023

However, the Canadian Vaping Association (CVA) has expressed concerns to the Quebec government, arguing that this regulation will not achieve its intended goal of curbing youth experimentation.

Key Points:

However, the Canadian Vaping Association (CVA) has expressed concerns to the Quebec government, arguing that this regulation will not achieve its intended goal of curbing youth experimentation.
The available data consistently finds that flavour bans fail to effectively protect youth and lead to increased tobacco sales among both young people and adults.
Flavour bans act as an impediment for adults who smoke, while failing to add any measure of protection to young people.
As the CVA steadfastly advocates for balanced, evidence-based policies, it becomes increasingly apparent that a shift in direction is imperative.
