Kube nabaningi abangabazayo abagxeka uhulumeni waseCanada ngokwehluleka ukuphasisa imithetho ezovimbela Osemncane Abantu baseCanada kusukela ekuthatheni i-vaping. Isibonelo, ngoJuni 2021, uprofesa waseCalgary Cumming School of Medicine kanye nabafundi ababili bezokwelapha bashicilela incwadi. umbono ucezu eCalgary Herald igxeka uhulumeni wesifundazwe ngokwehluleka ukwenza ngokushaya imithetho ezovala ukufutheka phakathi kwentsha.
Kepha abameli be-vaping nabo abalali. Ngemva nje kwesonto kushicilelwe ucezu lwemibono, i-Rights4Vapers, ithimba laseCanada elimela i-vaping laphendula ngokubiza bonke ababambiqhaza ukuthi bacabangele izinzuzo zokushushuluza njengethuluzi lokuyeka ukubhema.
I-Rights4Vapers njengamanye amaqembu amaningi alwela i-vaping ezweni izibona njenge-ejenti yoshintsho. Ngakho-ke, leli qembu alikuvimbi ukuhlehla kunoma yini eliyithatha njengengelona iqiniso mayelana ne-vaping. Iqembu lithembele kulo cindezela ukukhishwa nokuthunyelwe kwebhulogi ukwenza lokhu.
Ezimweni eziningi, ulwazi olubhaliwe alwanele ukuhlehlisa ulwazi olungaqondile nemithethonqubo engalungile. Yingakho iqembu lisiza ukuvakasha komgwaqo waseCanada okubhalwe ukuthi "ukuletha iqiniso" ehlobo eledlule. Yonke inhloso yohambo lwasemgwaqeni bekuwukuletha iqiniso kubantu mayelana ne-vaping kanye nokufuna ukwesekwa ngumphakathi ukuze bahlehle ngokumelene nemithethonqubo.
Leli qembu liphinde lasebenza ubusuku nemini ukuze likhuthaze isicelo esifakwe ngabalawuli abafuna ukwenza kanjalo nciphisa ama-flavour ku-e-cigarettes. I-Health Canada ibike lokho i-e-cigarette flavour zenza intsha yaseCanada ibe sengozini yokuthola i-vaping. Iqembu elimelayo, nokho, lithi ama-flavour asiza abantu abadala ukuba bayeke ukubhema futhi ukuwavimbela kungalimaza inhloso enkulu yemikhiqizo eshisayo.
Abameli abaningi be-vaping baphikisa ngokuthi kukhushulwe imithethonqubo emayelana nemikhiqizo yokufutha noma ukwanda izintela ze-vape kule mikhiqizo cishe kuzokwenza ukuthi le mikhiqizo ifinyeleleke kancane futhi ngaleyo ndlela iphoqe abasebenzisi abaningi ukuthi bakhethe ugwayi oyingozi kakhulu. Abameli laba bathi uhulumende kumele asebenzele ukuthola indlela zokuthi abantu abatsha bangabe besabhema ngaphandle kokukhuza labo abasebenzisa imitshina yokutshiya ugwayi.
I-Health Canada ivumelana namaqembu akhulumelayo ukuthi i-vaping ayiyona ingozi njengokubhema. Kodwa-ke, ithi intsha ezweni idinga ukuvikelwa ekuvuthweni ngoba imithelela yesikhathi eside yokushunqisa ayikaziwa. Lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu namuhla kunanoma yisiphi esinye isikhathi emlandweni ngoba izifundo zidweba isithombe esibi ngentsha yaseCanada.
Ucwaningo lweStatistics Canada lukhombisa ukuthi u-61% wentsha evumayo ukuthi ike yasebenzisa imikhiqizo yokuphefumula ezinsukwini ezingama-30 ezedlule akakaze abheme ugwayi ezimpilweni zabo. Lokhu kungqubuzana nezimangalo zokuthi imikhiqizo ye-vaping isetshenziswa ikakhulukazi abantu abayeka ukubhema. I-Healthy Canada ithi i-nicotine emikhiqizweni eshisayo iyalutha kakhulu futhi lapho intsha engakaze ibheme isebenzisa le mikhiqizo, cishe izobhekana nomthelela omubi.
Naphezu kokuphikisa kwamaqembu akhulumela i-vaping uhulumeni kanye nabanye ababambiqhaza bazimisele ukuvikela intsha emiphumeleni eyingozi yokubhema nokubhema ugwayi. Ngakolunye uhlangothi amaqembu alwela amalungelo awahlehli futhi azimisele ngokuthola izindlela zokuqhubeka exoxisana nabanye ababambiqhaza.
