Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for your attendance here today.
I have a couple of questions for the Canadian Cancer Society regarding the warnings and some of the changes to advertising on cigarette packages.
First, I want to congratulate you on your dedicated effort to increase the size of the warning labels on cigarette packages.
I come from Alberta. I don't smoke, but I understand that cigarette packages are not on display. They are behind the counter.
I have two questions. Number one, how many provinces have rules in place for keeping cigarette packages actually out of view? Number two, for provinces like mine that do have those rules and regulations in place, what effect do you think these increased warning labels will have, since the cigarette packages are actually out of the view of potential customers?
