Electronic Cigarette Act 2014
CALL TO ACTION!!!
ATTENTION OntarioVape Company Customers –
Now is the time to stand together and fight for our rights!!! We can all agree on one or two sections of the proposed act on electronic cigarettes in Ontario, but what we cannot do is allow the act as a whole, to go uncontested.
Now is the time to speak up!! Get your name on the list!! They are taking names for the committee; we must show there is interest. CALL! CALL! CALL!
TEL: 416-325-3500 – collect calls are accepted.
Get your name in, even if you are NOT sure you will attend or if you don’t want to attend, you can always send someone on your behalf as proxy.
BILL 45 needs to be amended!!!!
Your voice needs to be heard!!
As many of you are probably already aware, Ontario Bill 45 (Making Healthier Choices Act, 2014) contains three schedules, SECTION 3 is the Electronic Cigarettes Act, 2014. This Act will effectively treat Electronic Cigarettes as a Tobacco product. Some examples of what will result from this Act, as it is currently written:
- No Sales to Under 19 (one agreeable point)
- No Displays of Electronic Cigarette hardware
- No Displays of E-Liquid (with or without nicotine)
- No Listing of flavours
- No Showing consumers how to use or troubleshoot the devices
- No Vaping in Vape Shops, thus no Vape Lounges
- No Ontario Based Online Sales (Questionable but it is Display and Promotion)
- No Indoor Vape Meets in Public Spaces (Even if private club, a paid venue or rented space)
- No Vaping in vehicle with persons under 16 years old
- Many other restrictions
Think about when you go to a Gas Station or Convenience store. What do you see related to tobacco products? The same will apply to vape supplies and vendors in Ontario.
The Industry NEEDS your help battle this Bill.
SIGN THIS PETITION. WE NEED ALL YOUR SIGNATURES.
