So-called “puff” devices generate habits among young people that can lead to tobacco addiction, she added.
However, the government does not plan to raise taxes on tobacco next year after an increase this year, the prime minister said.
Just ban them for the insane waste they generate. Entire batteries just being tossed in the street. How are these legal anywhere is beyond me
Yup. Canada banned RTAs/RDAs (because 1 child died in the US in 2003 iirc) but allow the garbage dump-filling disposables … then scream bloody murder about how kids are using them.
Well duh. Bring back the rebuildables and few kids will have the money to spend and/or the drive to learn how to build coils, maintain the mod, etc.
Even just refillable tanks or pods. I have a pod based one, they last ages, refill when I need. Battery is rechargeable etc. None of the alleged “risks” of RDAs etc. As reusable as possible rather than this huge waste we have
Please bring this rule everywhere. These things are a public nuisance and horriblly pollutant.
They are built with rechargable lithium battery and go straight to trash ! Verry bad for pollution and garbage fire risk!
I actually didn’t know disposable e-cigarettes were a thing? Isn’t the appeal of e-cigarettes that they’re reusable?
Conveinance is a hell of a drug. Just like nicotine.
90% of the people that vape here (netherlands) use disposable ones, i think i’ve seen like 3 people with reusable vapes
To be fair I avoid people so it’s no wonder I’ve not seen any.
