  • Quebec on Track to Ban Flavoured Vapes Starting Oct. 31

    Quebec on Track to Ban Flavoured Vapes Starting Oct. 31

    Canadians on edge about Quebec flavoured e-liquids ban.

    Health Minister Christian Dube announced that on October 31 2023, Quebec plans on banning the sale of all flavoured e-liquids and vaping products.

    Only tobacco flavoured and unflavoured e-liquid products will be allowed to be sold.

    This ban aims to deter folks from vaping, especially the younger crowd. The goal is to make vaping seem less attractive by providing less options for flavours and products.

    Vaping Industry Feedback

    The vaping industry and vape users are outraged. Angelina Raimondo, who runs 14 vape stores across Quebec, spoke out to express her upset towards the ban.

    “90% of my e-liquid business is flavoured”, she says. “This right here. That’s it out of the entire store”, she says, pointing to a small shelf in one of her shops.

    Quebec business owners across the province are wondering how they’ll survive with this ban ensuing soon, due to the rapid drop in sales they will have.

    Meanwhile, Flory Doucas of the Quebec Coalition for Tobacco Control, is thrilled. “This is really what was needed to reduce the appeal of vaping products among our youth”.

    Doucas agrees that this change was necessary in order to reduce vape consumption, but Raimondo argues that vaping has helped for many to quit smoking and that this ban is counterproductive.

    She wonders if herself, among others, might end up returning to cigarettes after the flavour ban is put through. Quebec flavoured e-liquids ban removes a popular option for harm reduction from cigarettes.

    Black Market Concerns

    There is also concern of illegal black market vaping products rising, as mentioned by Eric Gagnon, Imperial Tobacco Canada’s vice-president of legal and external affairs. “[Young people] will inevitably continue to obtain their supplies the same way adults will from now on – through the black market, where products are unlicensed and there are no safety standards.”

    Although discourse from either side of the spectrum ensues, pro-vapers are considering taking legal action on the province of Quebec in regards to the flavour ban.

    For vapers, purchasing flavoured nicotine products is still possible.

    Flavoured vaping products continue to be legal to buy and sell in Ontario and other provinces. It is not against the law to ship products to other provinces. Canada Vapes premium flavoured e-liquids are still available for purchase here.

    Although a relief for customers, Quebec based businesses will inevitably suffer under these new restrictions. Quebec sellers will be forced to uphold a new standard when it comes to their products.

    How to Use a Dry Herb Vaporizer: A Step-by-Step Guide

    Using a dry herb vaporizer is easier than you might think. Let our dry herb vaporizers guide help you out! Our devices offer user-friendly features that require just a few simple steps:

    1. Prepare Your Herbs: Start by loading your finely ground herbs into the vaporizer’s chamber or reservoir. This is typically done by removing the mouthpiece or top cap.
    2. Power On: Power up your vaporizer by pressing the designated button(s). Some models may have a specific sequence of button presses to activate.
    3. Set the Temperature: Dry herb vaporizers often come equipped with temperature control settings. Consult your user manual for the recommended temperature range, which is usually between 350-450 degrees Fahrenheit. Adjust the temperature to your preference.
    4. Wait for Heating: Allow your vaporizer a minute or so to reach the desired temperature. Many devices have LED indicators that signal when they’re ready to use.
    5. Inhale Slowly: Once your vaporizer is heated, take slow, controlled draws from the mouthpiece. This will allow the heated air to pass over your herbs and release their beneficial compounds.
    6. Enjoy and Monitor: Continue to inhale at your desired pace, monitoring the vapor production. Remember, the goal is to vaporize the herbs, not burn them.
    7. Power Off: When you’ve finished your session, power off the device. Some vaporizers have an auto shut-off feature for safety, while others may require manual shutdown.
    8. Maintenance: Clean your vaporizer regularly using the included cleaning tools, such as brushes. Replace any worn-out filters or mouthpieces as needed to maintain optimal performance.

  • 5 Tips to Make Your Vaporizer Long Lasting

    5 Tips to Make Your Vaporizer Long Lasting

    Vaporizers are becoming popular on the market used to vape e-liquid. They are also cost-effective as you can use a device for several months. Once you have the battery, your recurring costs will involve replacing coils and e-liquids. The frequency of replacing them depends on how often you use the device.

    While replacing liquids is straightforward, the key to a long vaporizer lifespan is to maintain the coil. The cost of constantly replacing a burnt coil is a downside of vaping. Therefore,

    1.   Use the right coil

    Use the right coil

    Image source: https://unsplash.com/photos/9vs_XsYwsdE

    Purchase quality coils and vapes with replacement pods that will guarantee long life. Vape coils are strands of thin wire that connect with the base. When the coil and wick heat, the fluid turns into vapor to inhale. Every time you vape, the wick gets dry and sucks up more juice from the tank. Your device lifespan depends on using the best quality atomizer that will stand heating without burning.

    Also, use the correct wicking material in your vaporizer. The materials include cotton, ceramic, stainless steel, and wool. Every coil has its characteristics, including wattage ratings and where it functions best. For example, organic cotton provides better flavors, while a vaporizer with ceramic heating element is durable and preserves flavors. Buy coils made for the specific device you use.

    2.   Clean your device often.

    This might seem like an obvious thing, but some people may not regularly clean their devices. Regular maintenance of your device is the first route to increasing the vapes lifespan. Depending on your vaping habit, ensure you constantly remove residues from the vaporizer.

    Like any other device, regular use stretches the coil. The coil receives the e-juice residue and grime that can block its functioning. If you are a chain smoker, ensure you clean your device once every week to get the best out of your device.

    Apart from giving the device a long life, regular cleaning ensures you get clean hits. New coils and clean tanks offer better flavors that will stick forever. When cleaning the tank, remove any old juice residues. For example, rinse the coil with water to remove any juice traces. When cleaning the device, focus on the chamber, vapor path, and screens in the vapor path.

    3.   Use premium liquid

    The type of e-liquid determines how long you will use your vaporizer. Today, you will find dozens of vape juices on the market with variant characteristics. Choose a liquid with less sweetener  since sugar will gunk up the coil and prevent the wick from soaking new juice. A coil will burn if the wick is not adequately saturated.

    Also, focus on liquids with PG bases for a long vape life. Vape juices containing high VG content can burn your coil. This is because they are thick and affect the wick from soaking. Therefore, use PG liquids that are thinner and dip into the wick well. These e-liquids with higher PG content make it easy for the coil to work.

    Use the right e-juice that won’t damage your coils. Premium liquids can make a difference in your vaporizer lifespan. Avoid e-liquids that give more gunk and residue to the coil. Instead, use the liquid with a balanced proportion of VG and PG.

    4.   User appropriate temperatures

    The life of a vaporizer depends on how you use it. Using high wattage’s during vaping can shorten the life of your device. It stresses the coil since the liquid burns faster, thus risking burning it. You can make your device long-lasting by using lower wattage settings on your battery. Check the temperature settings to ensure it doesn’t have high wattage that will cause the coil to dry quickly.

    Temperature control prevents the wick from burning, allowing you to enjoy vaping for longer. This is where you set a maximum temperature for the vaporizer before vaping. Every time the coil reaches this maximum temperature, the battery stops delivering power. It prevents the wick from getting dry and burning quickly.

    While high wattage’s produce enormous clouds, they will shorten the vape life and force you into constant replacing. High wattage makes the coil heat while struggling to soak up e-liquid. Reducing the power setting can extend the coil’s lifespan.

    5.   Prime new coils before using

    Prime new coils before using

    Image source: https://unsplash.com/photos/sq5lAdfyC5s

    One of the main tips to lengthen your vapes lifespan is to prime a new coil before using it. The coil will burn if you use it immediately without priming the atomizer head. Ensure you saturate the wick before you vape to stretch its lifespan. However, be careful not to over-saturate and flood the vape.

    If you don’t prime it, the coil can burn straight away since it is too dry. Give it five minutes to saturate with the vape juice and be ready to heat. Alternatively, you can manually prime your coil if you don’t want to wait.

    The Bottom Line

    Vaporizers can have a long lifespan, depending on how you use them. Poor vaping habits can cause your coil to burn quickly and affect your vaping experience. If you want to avoid the cost of constantly replacing the coils, these tips can help lengthen the vapes’ lifespan. Ensure you apply them to stop the vape coil from quickly burning. While vaping is a great way to switch from cigarettes, your experience depends on taking proper care of the device.

  • Why Canada Vapes would NEVER target children

    Why Canada Vapes would NEVER target children

    I’m really at a loss here.

    I just reviewed a Canadian Lung Association commercial against vaping. In it, it shows an ice cream truck, pulling up to what appears to be a neighbourhood in Toronto, selling ice cream. After describing all the flavours for sale such as bubblegum, vanilla, and other candy flavours, they hand out the ice cream to the children. It is only after handing out this ice cream that they indicate to the concerned parents that there is nicotine-laced in their ice cream. This is so wrong.  As the teenagers say, I can’t even. Any vape shop owner will never target children.

    First, e-liquid is only available for purchase by adults, Vape shops would never target children.  Strictly regulated and strictly enforced, period.  Second, the fact that there is nicotine in e-liquid is never hidden.  All e-liquid legally sold in Canada must contain a warning label indicating its ingredients.  Third, with the new regulations, at least in Ontario, anyone under 18 years old will not even see any advertising or promotion of any vaping-related items.  Lastly, e-liquid has been available in fruity and sweet flavours for over 10 years, and increased youth use has been increasing only over the past few years.  There has to be another reason..

    Beyond the idiocy of this promotional material, I will provide a reasonable analytical explanation as to why it is ignorant to think that a vaping company would even want youth as customers. Let’s go beyond the moral and ethical responsibilities of every human being as a community to prevent our young people from activities that could cause harm, addiction, or pose challenges in their lives. Let’s focus only on the business aspect of running a vape shop.

    Why a Vape Shop would NEVER target children:
    Teenagers are Fickle

    First, teenage vapers are fickle. Since the majority of teenagers are not using vaping products as they are recommended or created for, they are not regular users. Teenagers tended to intentionally overdose on nicotine using very high-nicotine devices such as JUUL pods to get a significant nicotine buzz similar to that of a marijuana joint or pipe.   This is why at Canada Vapes we do not sell ultra-high nicotine e-liquids.

    With this in mind, a teenage customer would likely purchase much less product from a vaping company than a committed, adult ex-smoker.  A teenager may purchase a vape one time to use at a party and never vape again, whereas a 45-year-old man, for example, who has been smoking for 25 years and finds vaping an effective method to quit smoking will likely be a customer for many years to come. This 45-year-old hypothetical customer will also talk with his forty-something-year-old friends and family about your product.

    It is breaking the law

    The second reason that the idea of targeting youth and promoting vaping in Canada is idiocy is the fact that it is against the law. The first-time fines for selling vaping products to minors are in the thousands of dollars. No intelligently run business would risk these types of fines for an insignificant increase in sales. If these companies exist, I have never heard of them, nor have I had any interaction with their owners. Each vape shop owner I’ve ever spoken with fully supports all government regulations on limiting vaping age and IDs every customer that comes into their establishment.a vape shop owners will never target children anymore.

    Teenagers don’t have much expendable Money

    The third reason that a vape company targeting youth would be a major business mistake is that to put it bluntly, most teenagers don’t have a lot of money and have many places they want to spend their money. Even if you are selling a product designed and created for teenagers (and vaping products are not) the competition on where teenagers spend their money is intense.  Most adults in their 40s have a full-time job. They likely have other sources of income. They are likely already spending hundreds of dollars a month on cigarettes. These customers are wonderful for vape shops as they have the income to support the transition away from tobacco cigarettes and into vaping. A teenager, on the other hand, has very limited resources and often many more areas that they want to spend their money. From fast food to malls, to the newest clothing, shoes, concerts, records, and other social activities, the financial capabilities of a teenager are very limited. A smart and savvy vape shop owner would target customers who can actually afford the products they sell.

    Promoting to minors is a publicity nightmare

    The fourth reason that of the company would never target youth is because of the terrible publicity that this could create in their business. Just take JUUL for example, who have been accused of targeting youth, and poor business practices, and see how their name has been run through the mud. Look at their stock valuation, look at their sales numbers, and you’ll quickly see that even being accused of targeting youth will have a major detrimental effect on your small business.

    It is simply not necessary.

    This fifth reason the vaping companies don’t target youth is because it is simply not necessary. Between the ages of 21 and 75, there is a massive number of smokers all across the world. There is an estimated 1.1 billion smokers in the world which is a monstrous number of potential customers. There is no need for any vape companies to consider promotions to non-smokers, youth smokers, or any other demographic because there is simply a massive target market available for them.Any vape shop owner will never target children.

    If an insane and irrational vape shop owner were to run a vape shop designed to try to acquire a teenage customer base, they would most certainly be out of business before the paint was dry in their store.  Quite simply, promoting vaping to youth is a terrible and damning business decision.

    Please note that the most applicable reason to not sell the products to minors is that of a moral one. I was able to explain using five simple reasons why vape companies would be absolutely mad to consider promoting their products to minors. I did this without using any moral or ethical justifications or explanations. When you add this moral reasoning, it becomes abundantly clear that the only reason vape products are available in fruity, candy, and sweet flavours is for adult vapers who enjoy the sweet taste. Similarly to fruit and candy-infused alcohol; there is no denying that just because you get older, you never stop enjoying the sweeter things in life.

  • Nova Scotia to ban all flavoured vaping products

    Nova Scotia to ban all flavoured vaping products

    Nova Scotia has become the third province to suggest restricting vaping Products in the province. Ontario and  British Columbia have both proposed provincial regulations on vaping, but Nova Scotia’s proposed bans are, by far, the most restrictive in Canada.

    The ban is set to come into place on April 1, 2020, and it will include the ban of “any flavours of the liquid”. The only available e-liquid and vaping products in Nova Scotia will be tobacco and bland flavour.

  • P.E.I. Vaping bill to increase age from 19 to 21, and ban e-liquid flavours.

    P.E.I. Vaping bill to increase age from 19 to 21, and ban e-liquid flavours.

    PC MLA, Cory Deagle, passed the second reading of a private member’s P.E.I. The vaping bill would restrict where vaping products can be sold, would ban certain flavours, and would also raise the legal age to buy tobacco and e-cigarettes from 19 to 21.

    Deagle stated: “These substances, you become addicted to nicotine. In some cases, there is four or five, 20 times the amount of nicotine and e-cigarette than there is in a regular cigarette.”

    The second reading vote was unanimous, with all parties in support of passing the bill. There is also discussion about the possibility of adding taxes when this P.E.I. vaping bill is introduced in the spring.

    The P.E.I. Vaping bill also addresses where vape products can be sold – indicating they could only be sold in a “tobacconist shop”.

    Trump suggests banning vaping products could lead to “stuff on the street corner that could be horrible”

    President Trump now seems open to the idea that vaping nicotine e-liquid is not ‘killing people’ and the idea of banning Vaping Products across the United States on a federal level seems to be in question.

    Trump stated in a recent press conference:  “The one thing I see, when you watch prohibition, you look at the alcohol, cigarettes, you look at all.   If you don’t give it to them it’s going to come here illegally.  Instead of legitimate companies… they are going to be selling stuff on the street corner that could be horrible.”
