A regulatory bill requiring the insertion of warnings on each cigarette will take effect on the 1st.<\/p>\n
Cigarettes with warnings on the outer packaging are sold all over the world, but putting warnings on each cigarette is the first regulation in the world introduced by Canada.<\/p>\n
As the regulation takes effect, cigarette manufacturers will have to put warnings such as ‘Poison in every puff’ on each cigarette in the future. However, regulations on retail sales will be applied in earnest from next year.<\/p>\n
Retailers must prepare to sell king-size cigarettes with the new warning by the end of July next year.\u00a0This means a grace period of one year.<\/p>\n
Regular-size cigarettes with the new warnings must be ready for sale by the end of April 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
