Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to thank the witnesses for being here this morning.
Mr. Arango said that young people get addicted to cigarettes for at least 20 years.
My question is for all the witnesses, starting with Mr. Arango. Is Bill C-10 a solution? Will it help reduce tobacco use in young people?
It's important to note that a number of witnesses told us that, as with clothing, young people are attracted to brand-name cigarettes, legal cigarettes, particularly flavoured cigarettes.
We know that fear campaigns aren't a solution. Young people are drawn to danger, alcohol, speed, and so on.
Will Bill C-10 help reduce tobacco use in young people? What might the solution be? What do you think, Mr. Arango?
