Other Canadian Consumers – Your Province Can Be Next!
The Quebec government’s recent move to join the flavourless crusade is just part of the larger trend of increased regulatory restrictions. If Quebec passes these regulations it will set another precedent for banning flavours, which may encourage other provinces to follow in the future.
The ban will curb consumers’ choices and impact the survival of hundreds of small businesses. Make a comment on the proposed regulations using our template, and directly voice your opinions to the government of Quebec now.
Why Should You Care Even If You Don’t Vape?
You may not personally have the worries of losing flavour options on vaping products, nor experience the journey of quitting smoking. However, flavours play an important role in helping smokers quit smoking. Removing flavours completely may kill an important source for smokers to transition to a less harmful source of nicotine.
The Flavour ban is not going to help improve public health, yet, over-regulations may bring negative consequences to Canada’s competitiveness and regulation environment, ultimately doing more harm than good. Express your concerns about the potential negative effects of these proposed regulations to the government of Quebec using our template now.
Act now before it’s too late to make your voice heard, and help stop Quebec from tumbling into a flavourless landscape.
