New Canadian Regulations Require Disclosure of E-Cigarette Ingredients and Sales Information

Jul.20.2022
New Canadian regulations will require e-cigarette manufacturers to disclose health information about their products' sales and ingredients.

According to reports, Canada is currently developing a new regulation that would require e-cigarette manufacturers to provide health information regarding sales and ingredients.


Currently, the Canadian Department of Health has limited information regarding the sale and composition of electronic cigarette products, making it difficult to adequately track market trends. To address this issue, Carolyn Bennett, Minister of Health and Deputy Minister of Mental Health and Addictions, has announced a 45-day public consultation period to gather information for the development of new regulations for electronic cigarette products. This will require manufacturers to disclose information regarding their sales and ingredients to the Department of Health, in an effort to maintain market transparency and keep pace with the rapidly growing electronic cigarette market in Canada.


Carolyn Bennett stated, "As the electronic cigarette market continues to rapidly grow, many Canadians, including young people, are beginning to use these products. We are taking action to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the health impacts of these products in order to better protect everyone.
