“As of March 1, 2021, the sale of flavoured vape and e-cigarette products will be banned on Prince Edward Island. The regulation changes were passed by cabinet last month. It comes as part of a private members bill from PC MLA Cory Deagle, which received unanimous support from the legislature in 2019, to crack down on nicotine use among young people. P.E.I. has already made changes to the Tobacco and Electronic Smoking Devices Sales and Access Act as part of Deagle’s bill. Effective March 2020, the age of access for tobacco and vaping products increased to 21, and the points of purchase became more regulated — with products only available through vape shops and tobacconists. Deagle would now like to see P.E.I. follow Nova Scotia’s lead — capping nicotine concentration in e-liquids at 20 milligrams per millilitre.”
