Listened to that earlier today. Twenty minutes really doesn't do the topic justice. Wished there had been more depth of discussion as Health Canada really has it's nickers in a twist about their right to regulate and Dr Stanbrook was making some pretty flimsy claims about e-cig marketing, impurities, potential for harm.

Impurities, OMGERD! Don't we get an allowance of bug remains in our grains? Impurities show that the grain industry is using the FDA to conspire against us. At least, that's if I took the good Doctors claims and applied it to another industry.

I haven't listened to it yet, but there's a poll on the site - Is vaping a good way to quit smoking? So far Yes is winning at 66% and 17% say they're unsure. I take the latter as a favorable indicator of a group that doesn't know enough but isn't conceptually opposed to it. The comments are pretty positive too. That's good to see.
