In order to introduce a new electronic cigarette product to the market, the manufacturer will have to demonstrate that the product is beneficial to the public's health. This does not simply mean that one must demonstrate that the product is safer than cigarettes. The applicant also needs to show that the introduction of the product into the market will not deter smokers from quitting or encourage youth to start using the product. At the present time, there is a substantial body of opinion among tobacco control experts that electronic cigarettes do not reduce population risk. Therefore, how can we expect that a manufacturer could demonstrate, at the level of proof required, something which most tobacco control experts do not even agree with?

Under this provision, an electronic cigarette company cannot even inform consumers that the product does not produce smoke because such a claim would be considered a "reduced exposure" claim under the Tobacco Act.

While the deeming regulations pretend to acknowledge that there is "a continuum of nicotine-delivering products" in terms of their health risks, the truth is that the agency fails to acknowledge that the most hazardous product along that continuum - cigarettes - are any more hazardous than the least dangerous product (non-tobacco electronic cigarettes).
