The measure that was introduced in budget 2018 had two major components. The first was to ensure that inflationary adjustments are brought in every year. In doing so, the government maintains the real impacts of federal taxes on tobacco products. The federal excise duty is a fixed amount of tax that is charged at the production of each cigarette, so if these taxes are not increased over time, their effectiveness is reduced because of inflation. That was the first component of the measure.
The second component is an extra dollar increase that will help to support the health conservation goals that are attached to tobacco taxation.
Unfortunately I don't have the budget with me, but there were also amounts of money provided as part of the federal tobacco control strategy. The revenues associated with federal excise duty on tobacco products flow into the consolidated revenue funds and are used to finance all services and programs that Canadians enjoy, including providing some extra funding for health.
