I just found out from my Tobacconist that as of July 1st 2024 we will no longer be able to buy blends made within the store, All Pipe Tobacco will have to be sealed and blended by the suppliers. For me this really sucks as I have searched hard for the Blends I like and during Covid I was not able to get them so my Pipe Smoking was cut back. It seems that they are doing everything possible to make Canadians give up smoking anything but Pot.
New law coming to Canada
- Thread starter CDN Piper
- Start date
Whole Leaf if possible is where I’d be looking.
Utterly ridiculous. As if it matters where the tobacco is manufactured or simply blended for that matter. Sorry to hear this. I guess I'll have to switch to pot seeing as there is a cannabis store literally on every street corner!
This is some bullshit. I don't understand the reasoning. Do you have a link to any posted material that may explain why this is a coming law?
The "reasoning" is Tobacco Is Evil, and anything and everything that can be done to Kill The Evil Tobacco Monster must be done. The screws must be tightened at every opportunity.
In other Canadia news, the western provinces are definitely starting to get tired of Castro's kid and his bullshit, so things are not done and dusted quite yet:
Bell: Smith to trigger Alberta sovereignty act against Trudeau Monday
Premier Danielle Smith to trigger Alberta Sovereignty within a United Canada Act against Trudeau Monday in fight over electricity rights

She is a total crack pot. Our idiot premier will likely join her. Together they make Ford look like a genius.The "reasoning" is Tobacco Is Evil, and anything and everything that can be done to Kill The Evil Tobacco Monster must be done. The screws must be tightened at every opportunity.

This is a sinking ship.
You should advocate the same rule for coffee and mixed drinks and sit back and watch the revolution begin !
Much as it sucks from a civil liberties standpoint, I always hate it when tobacconists re-label bulk blends, this should actually be a win for transparency with consumers.
I don’t know if this counteracts that practice. @CDN Piper only stated that tobaccos cannot be blended in stores. But that in and of itself doesn’t mean that tobaccos that are blended by manufacturers can’t be relabeled as something else.
I will look, but it may be buried under some other bill so it may take some time.
Yeesh. And I just saw a post on another site claiming more restrictions coming to Portland/Oregon.
I'm not cellaring to age tobaccos. This is why I do what I do

I always wonder when I hear this law is happening and I don't see anything official about it just the word of a retailer. They're not lawyers and often it makes more sense for them to be pessimistic then optimistic (the old over cautious is less likely to run afoul). What the original post says is that the owner of a business interprets the new or proposed law in a certain way. No confirmation if they're honest or know what they're talking about. Also no confirmation the other ways either if they're a liar or well informed.
That said I wish I would have not underreacted to the variety and choice apocalypse of the deeming regs. I should have listened to the people saying that all new blends would never ever happen again.
Not saying it's not happening just saying don't get the pitchforks and torches out yet.
