Senate passes flavoured tobacco bill

The Canadian Senate has passed a bill that would ban flavours and additives in tobacco products. The government says that tobacco companies add fruit flavours and vitamins, sugar, and other additives that taste like candy to little cigars in order to mask the tobacco’s harshness and appeal to kids. Bill C-32, also known as the Cracking Down on Tobacco Marketing Aimed at Youth Act, passed unanimously in the House of Commons in June with the support of all three opposition parties.
