Several anti-tobacco groups are calling on Canada's health minister to finalize regulations that would ban flavoured vaping products.

    If they really cared about the youth they would also ban flavoured alcohol

      They should only allow you to buy little bottles just like with edibles.

        Grey market is king, I’ve seen a 3000mg edible. Sadly I didn’t have a week off work so I couldn’t buy it…

      What counts as “flavored alcohol”?

      I think everclear and vodka are basically the only two that aren’t typically flavored with something

        All of it. Don’t fucking ban stuff for adults; monitor your children.

      What, like you can’t buy vodka and orange juice at the same time?

      These things are not comparable. They do not function the same way.

        I don’t think this would apply to mixing.

        I mean nobody is going to ban buying a pregnancy test at the same time as a clothes hanger.

      would wine (the drink and cooking ingredient) be considered flavoured?

        Yes.

        Only pure alcohol is allowed.

      I would imagine that anyone in favor of one is also likely in fvaor of the other.

        You would imagine wrong because it’s not about logical consistency with these people.
