‘Poison in every puff’ message proposed amid government concern photo warnings on tobacco packages have lost impact
Canada is poised to become the first country in the world to require that a warning be printed on every cigarette.
A consultation period for the proposed change was set to begin on Saturday, and the government anticipated the changes coming into force in the latter half of 2023. Canada has required the photo warnings since the turn of the millennium, but the images haven’t been updated in a decade. The move also drew praise from Geoffrey Fong, a professor at the University of Waterloo and principal investigator with the International Tobacco Control Policy Evaluation Project.
