On August 27, according to foreign news reports, the Canadian Electronic Cigarette Association (CVA) is worried that the country’s proposed flavor restrictions will lead to an increase in smoking rates. In the Canadian Gazette, Health Canada pointed out that people who both smoke and smoke e-cigarettes are called dual users, and they have not reduced their health risks caused by smoking.

Among the regulations restricting nicotine concentration, Health Canada stated that it is expected that some dual users may re-smoker only because of the proposed regulations. However, smokers can only get the benefits of e-cigarettes if they switch to e-cigarettes completely.

It is a fallacy that dual use is as harmful or harmful as smoking alone. Every time an e-cigarette is used instead of cigarettes, the person will reduce his exposure to 7,000 harmful chemicals found in cigarettes. In addition, dual use usually indicates that smokers are trying to quit smoking or drastically reduce their cigarette intake. The dual-use fallacy goes against common sense, because dual-use ranges from primarily smokers to primarily e-cigarettes. People who mainly smoke e-cigarettes but occasionally smoke greatly reduce their exposure to toxic chemicals.

"The Canadian Gazette has repeatedly mentioned dual users re-smoking. It is also admitted that e-cigarette companies that also sell cigarettes may be able to make up for their losses through tobacco sales. The proposed regulations will lead to increased smoking rather than support effective smoking cessation assistance. If we In order to achieve the current national smoking reduction target, Canada must reconsider this policy." CVA Executive Director Darryl Tempest said.

Although the increase in dual-user smoking is widely acknowledged, it completely underestimates the number of re-smokers using only e-cigarettes. According to a survey by ECigIntelligence, in provinces that currently have no taste restrictions, 19% of e-cigarette users said they would re-smoker, and 53% said that if flavors are banned, they will seek alternative ways to purchase products. The black market will not be subject to any quality control, and these products may pose a danger to Canadians.

The proposal to limit flavors pointed out that it is not yet clear what effect e-cigarette users will have if they cannot obtain their favorite flavors. Prior to the impact analysis, no further regulatory considerations should be made. E-cigarette products can reduce tobacco use and benefit public health. Canada has a history of supporting harm reduction-tobacco harm reduction should be no different.
