It’s inexplicable. The Canadian government appears hellbent on destroying the health and wellbeing of over one million citizens in a misguided, ill-conceived effort to eradicate nicotine use in the country.
Now the feds are not attempting to eradicate smoking, the habit that kills tens of tens of thousands of Canadians each year. No, it’s nicotine vaping products that the government is poised to ban, which are a vastly safer source of nicotine, and the very same products the Liberal-led Canadian government legalized only three years ago.
Joining us today on RegWatch is Janine Timmons, a concerned Canadian user of nicotine vaping products and long-time supporter of the federal Liberals. Timmons is shaken by Health Canada’s “absolutely reckless” move to ban flavors, which the regulator acknowledges will push some people back to smoking.

The global war against safer nicotine vaping products continues unabated with new flavor bans, nicotine restrictions, and vaping taxes. Tobacco control says these measures are intended to eradicate the youth vaping epidemic, but harm reduction activists fear the result will be to drive millions of people back to smoking.
In this episode of RegWatch we are joined by Charles A. Gardener, executive director of INNCO, the International Network of Nicotine Consumer Organizations for a deep dive into the tactics used by tobacco control to destroy nicotine vaping as a viable alternative to smoking.
Hear analysis on flavor bans and why teen vaping rates have plummeted by 29% and learn why he thinks anti-vaping activists could be in for a shock when the U.S. FDA announces market authorizations under its PMTA process.

With an extraordinary amount of misinformation and vitriol swirling around vaping, it’s hard to believe public perception could change any time soon. Yet, there could be an occasion for hope, and surprisingly, the optimism is grounded in FDA’s premarket tobacco application process.
In this episode of RegWatch, we are joined by Alex Norcia, staff writer at Filter and former vaping beat reporter at VICE. Hear why he thinks many could be in for a shock this September when FDA grants marketing approval to certain vaping products.

Any day now, Canadian vapers expect Health Canada to announce a nationwide restriction for nicotine levels in vaping products that promise to cut by over half the amount of nicotine available in current devices and e-liquids. It’s also feared the regulator will soon follow with a national ban on e-liquid flavours that is certain to devastate the industry and destroy a vital tool over one million Canadians use to quit smoking.
In this episode of RegWatch, we are joined by Ian Irvine, Professor of Economics at Concordia University and Research Fellow at the C.D. Howe Institute. Hear his warning to Health Canada that these efforts, ostensibly to combat teen vaping, would lead to an increase in smoking-related disease and death.

Another Canadian province bans flavours in nicotine vaping products in response to the moral panic over teen vaping. With astonishing speed, the province of New Brunswick tabled and passed new legislation guaranteed to destroy adult access and choice to the products many use as a safer alternative to smoking.
Join RegWatch’s same-day coverage with a response to the new flavour ban from Dr. John Oyston, Canadian anesthesiologist, and harm reduction advocate.
