Fear the Paper

Canada’s not only putting explicit health-harm warnings on cigarette packages, but printing them on each cigarette’s rolling paper too–in English and in French. I suppose if you’re going to suck in nicotine and tobacco particulates, ya might as well huff that fine, fine, toxic burnt ink residue too.

Mais attendez! Québec is one-upping the Feds by banning flavored vapes as of Halloween. No treats for you, vapers!!

I wish all this would make it respiratorily safer for me to walk/ride around the streets of Montréal, but not holding my breath, ha ha.
