The Better Cigar Plan achieves the intent of Health Canada's plain packaging legislation while ensuring collateral damage is entirely avoided #noplainpackaging https://t.co/oAdygigtSw @FinDonnelly@TerrySheehanMP@MarcGarneau @ziad_aboultaif
It will be harder to deal with counterfeit tobacco products plus more people will start ordering premium #cigars online.
Bad news for Canada's tobacconists. The #BetterCigarPlan shows how to avoid this.
Let's #KeepCanadaColorful with #NoPlainPackaging.
Cigar stores are threated by contraband products, Internet sales and now Health Canada. If you want to save local jobs then oppose plain packaging! #noplainpackaging https://t.co/BNPXp1ag5D @jyduclos@GuyCaronNPD @bsansoucynpd @BillBlair
@Jayfan34@bettercigarplan Cigars are a niche industry. No kid is spending 20 bucks a stick (average cost of entry premium stick). So who are they protecting. We don't need government protecting us from ourselves. It's insulting! Next they will ban fatty steaks, butter, gasoline etc. Let people be!
Health Canada wants the incidence of smoking in Canada to drop to 5%. Premium cigars represent 1%. We're already compliant with their long term goals! #noplainpackaging https://t.co/xtx7U9D61H @kylejpeterson@DLeBlancNB @KentThornhillMP @Pjcjoelgodin
Health Canada's proposed cigar plain packaging regulations will see tax revenues bleed to neighbouring jurisdictions - we can't afford this! #noplainpackaging https://t.co/JMPYeOBS5b @JohnMcKayLib @DonRusnakMP @Kevin_Lamoureux@PLDusseault
At least 180 family-owned businesses are being needlessly endangered by Canada's approach to plain packaging of cigars. #noplainpackaging https://t.co/EnMs9PGC3Z @_DebSchulte@DVK_CKL @KirstyDuncanMP @R_Boissonnault
