I have a question for you and then you can make a comment, sir. This is a story from The Globe and Mail dated April 2017. It says, “CCSA has financial ties to tobacco companies and has faced recent criticism for working with at least one major tobacco company to promote industry interests.”
It then goes on to say:
Last fall, Imperial Tobacco documents made public by non-smoking advocacy groups indicate the company worked with CCSA on cross-country campaigns to promote the industry's interests, including lower tobacco taxes and focusing attention on the problem of contraband tobacco. CCSA members include Imperial Tobacco, JTI-Macdonald Corp. and Rothmans, Benson & Hedges.
For the record, does the CCSA lobby for the interests of the tobacco industry, yes or no?
