Quebec intends to ban the sale of flavored vaping cartridges and e-liquids. The Canadian city also wants to limit nicotine content after a public health report warned of a major increase in youth vaping in the province.

“With the growing popularity of vaporization products, especially among young people, it becomes imperative to act to prevent a new generation from becoming addicted to nicotine because of these products,” Health Minister Christian Dubé said Wednesday in a statement.
