By Media Relations“The Government of Ontario should be applauded for regulating e-cigarettes. While they have potential to help people quit smoking, there is also risk in re-normalizing use of nicotine. Regulating sales and restricting the places people can use e-cigarettes will limit potential harms,” he said.
Professor Manske is a research associate professor in the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences and senior scientist with the Propel Centre for Population Health Impact at Waterloo. Propel is a driving force in lobbying for amendments to tobacco laws through population-level research.
