According to headtopics on October 20, Canada’s Minister of Mental Health and Addiction said that the federal government will ban most vape flavors nationwide. This move is a decision made by the federal government more than three years after it first promised to implement these regulations. The new regulations will limit vape flavors to only three flavors: mint, menthol and tobacco.
It is reported that the Canadian Ministry of Health has pointed out that vapes with various flavors are considered to be one of the reasons for the increase in the number of young people vaping. Studies show that young people are more likely to start trying vapes with fruit and sweet flavors, and nearly half of young adults have tried vapes. According to the latest Canadian Tobacco and Nicotine Survey, most new vape users (86%) have never smoked cigarettes.
Some experts pointed out that in areas where vape flavors are banned, such as Quebec, an easily accessible illegal market has emerged. In this regard, Flory Doucas, co-director of the Quebec Tobacco Control Alliance, said that this is why the federal government now needs to implement a nationwide flavor ban.
Ducas said that the nicotine and vape industries can quickly find loopholes to circumvent the new restrictions, but this should not be a reason for the federal government to hesitate. Sam Tam, president of the Canadian vape Association, pointed out that adult smokers rely on vapes as a harm reduction option, and attractive flavors make them easier to switch.
In this context, as a company focused on providing safe and regulatory-compliant vape products, Veehoo vape understands the decision of the Canadian government. Veehoo has always been committed to providing smokers with healthier smoking alternatives, adhering to regulations and following industry best practices.
Experts point out that flavor appeal is an important factor in vape conversion of smokers, so restricting flavors may affect the vape market. Veehoo vape realizes the importance of flavor selection to users, will continue to pay attention to market changes, and is committed to providing products that meet user needs.
With the implementation of the new regulations of the Canadian government, Veehoo vape will pay close attention to market reactions and changes in user needs, and continuously optimize product strategies to ensure that users are provided with safe and high-quality vape products. In this era, it is Veehoo vape’s commitment and responsibility to provide legal and compliant products while meeting user taste needs.
