The situation may be getting worse.

I'd also like to know where the other .4 went as well.

I just read the report and from what I can see they were just looking for the compounds

Analysis for PG was found 21.8%
Analysis for VG was found 48.8%
No other chemical compounds were detected
Water found was 28.3%
Nicotine found 0.7%

The results posted seemed strange. He said they tested liquid from their cartomizers, and they found:
PG - 21.8%
VG - 48.8%
NIC - 0.7%
water - 28.3%

He then said "NO OTHER CHEMICAL COMPOUND WAS DETECTED".

Anyone else curious about what's in the other 0.4% and why non of the flavouring compounds were detected?

He has not published the whole report yet, and I think this was just a small portion of that report published. I can find out though for you.

Ok I got a quick response. There was no flavoring in the cart, and when asked about the .4percent, the chemist said to count is as an error margin.

I can see leaving a margin of error of .4%

Raechel, This group that is directing the regulation,etc, is exactly what is needed. Any other method will not be of much use in the fact that HC will shrug their shoulders to listen to anyone. Professionals will indeed be a major factor in the process. Without them it will be a losing battle. HC, in conjuction with the other offices in the Canadian government will argue points that lead to Revenue Canada and major tobacco and cessation companies. Money towards tabacco and cessation companies are huge contributers to government and have more power towards what happens. What the real battle is, is the cash that these companies will lose and taxes that government haven't figured out how to install to e cigs and juice. These agencies want a piece of the pie, whether it be by dominating the industry or taking over it. Shareholders of these companies are(yes) filthy rich and have only one interest to any of this. The dollar. All I can see is these cash grabbers needing their fingers in the pie and half the fight is over IMHO. Then HC will be interested in regulating and bring things to the table. Money talks when it comes to a vested interest to the rich. My opinion may not be a large factor, but I feel they are of interest when decisions are made, there is always someone in the background that sways the way business is done.
Keep up the battle and good luck to all of you. We need this for all the vapers and the suppliers.

They will be testing mint, vanilla cocoa and strawberry flavors next just to let you all know.
