France plans to ban disposable electronic cigarettes, French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne said on radio station RTL on Sunday.

So-called “puff” devices generate habits among young people that can lead to tobacco addiction, she added.

However, the government does not plan to raise taxes on tobacco next year after an increase this year, the prime minister said.

    Yup. Canada banned RTAs/RDAs (because 1 child died in the US in 2003 iirc) but allow the garbage dump-filling disposables … then scream bloody murder about how kids are using them.

    Well duh. Bring back the rebuildables and few kids will have the money to spend and/or the drive to learn how to build coils, maintain the mod, etc.

      Even just refillable tanks or pods. I have a pod based one, they last ages, refill when I need. Battery is rechargeable etc. None of the alleged “risks” of RDAs etc. As reusable as possible rather than this huge waste we have
