Once again, I fully understand the meaning of the amendment, but its scope will eventually make it conflict with provincial and territorial legislation, since we do not fully and definitively know where the vaping products will be sold. We know in some cases, but it remains to be determined in other cases. This will therefore create a conflict.
The advertising aspect, the promotion of the products, can also pose a problem. The rules governing the sale of vaping products will be stricter than those governing the sale of tobacco products. We want to protect young people and even adults, and we want the rules to be consistent, but there must be a balance. We have to inform the public, the people, but we must not promote products related to tobacco use in particular.
For those reasons, we will vote against the amendment.
