Smoking has been found to be a major cause of ill health and death in Canada.
The Government of Canada has embarked on a new initiative to avoid the 48,000 tobacco-related deaths that occur each year.
So far, warning slogans have been printed on cigarette packets, with slogans emphasizing awareness against smoking and the dangers of smoking around every cigarette.
