Let's look at the whole concept of an e-cigarette. For those e-cigarettes that don't have nicotine—all they have is some sort of flavoured whatever.... I mean, why would you want to inhale a flavoured whatever when it has absolutely nothing in it?
The question is, are we talking about the actual vehicle of the vaporizer or the e-cigarette thing that is probably the biggest problem? At the end of the day if you treated the one with nicotine as a drug and therefore put it under that section of the Food and Drug Act, and if you took the rest that had nothing but sweet water in it and you just put that under food, then what you would need to do is to regulate the industrial component, the manufacturing component, all the bits and pieces that go to make it to ensure that they meet certain standards.
Could one do that? How then would one know for sure? If you took the other one just as a consumer product, and it has nothing but flavoured water.... As we heard Mr. Lunney say, the bottom line is that people could still use it for whatever the heck they want to do, so quietly at home. Are we actually just talking about the whole concept of the electronic mode? Is that what we're really talking about as being the big problem here?
