Campaign to keep tobacco tax high in Manitoba
The Council For A Tobacco-Free Manitoba launches a month long drive urging Manitobans to contact MLAs against tobacco tax cuts. Dr Richard Stanwick warns lower prices spark youth smoking while higher prices deter quitting, citing health impacts and past Canada wide declines. The coalition links rising taxes with reduced tobacco use and directs readers to contact the Canadian Cancer Society Manitoba Division for more information.
