Canadian new to Vaping

[Gelgamek]

Hey all,

So I managed to quit smoking for about half of last year using a cheap (nicotine-less) e-cig that I picked up from a convenience store, combined with the patch. The patch got rid of my nicotine craving, and by the time I finished with it, I was happy to just smoke my nicotine-less ecig. But, like an idiot, I've since started smoking regular cigs again.

I really want to try switching to vaping but I'm not really sure where to start. I don't know where/how to get e-cigs with nicotine in them in Ontario, but I really hate using the patch. I would love to be able to start with a moderate amount of nicotine, and slowly taper off at my own pace. Are there any Canadian sites that sell juice with nicotine, or American sites that reliably ship to Canada?

If getting e-cigs with nicotine in them isn't feasible in Ontario, then I'll go for the nicotine-less ones and maybe try combining it with the patch or something else again for a while. Either way, I definitely want something that works and tastes better than the crap one I got from the convenience store.

Any tips for starting out would be much appreciated!

Hey and welcome. Canvape.com sells everything you need to get started. They also have a booth in the 400 flea market In Barrie.

Thanks for the quick reply! It looks like they only sell the 0-nicotine stuff, though I might be better off going that route anyway

Hi fellow Canuck:

I just started too - in fact my kit came today and I'm just taking my first few puffs.

There is a place in London ON called FlavourCrafters - they have a website - and that's where I got my nicotinic liquid.

They have all sorts of flavours including tobacco and 4 levels of nicotine you can work your way through.

Happy vaping,
~m

You will be able to find nicotine in Canada. Whether it's locally or online. I'll recommend you stick to Canadian sites though, since customs can confiscate orders with nicotine as I understand it. What is important to note is that nicotine "juice" is not actually illegal here, but that's a long story. Just know that you are not doing anything wrong.

I can vouch for the two companies linked below, but I haven't ordered online from them (I'm lucky and have access to their brick and mortar locations).

Ah thanks for tips. I haven't checked with any of the local stores around town... maybe one of them sell stuff with nicotine.

Seems pretty ridiculous to me that it should be illegal. It isn't very likely to be worse for me than cigarettes, so if I think it'll help me quit I should be able to buy it.

I'm been vaping for maybe less than 2 months and have learned a lot since then. I buy my hardware from vaporus.com and canvape.com but I order juices from mapleleafvapes.com and canadaejuice.com

You can order from their website and I think it was only 2 days until I got mine.

Just an FYI, liquid containing nicotine is not illegal in Canada. Health Canada has only issued a health advisory on e-cigs and ejuice containing nicotine.

Has anybody had issues flying into Canada with e-juice? I'm going back home (NB) in August and wondering if I should risk it or have some juice ordered locally ahead of time.

Welcome to the forum Gelgamek, you will not have any problem getting nic juice in Canada, with Canvape you will not see any nic juices until you register, then log out and log back in and you should see it. Head on over to the Canada forum Canada Forum and you will get tons of advice.
