Nothing goes more in Quebec or the vape is more and more pointed the finger! David Bowles, President of the Federation of Private Educational Institutions presents vaping as a “real scourge” in Quebec schools, declaring that some young people even go so far as to use it in class.
"SMOKING MAKES A STRONG RETURN WITH VAPING"
Canadian statistics are slow to document the phenomenon, but all the stakeholders consulted by Our Journal note the meteoric growth of vaping. School authorities, the National Institute of Public Health and the Quebec Coalition for Tobacco Control sound the alarm before the situation becomes an epidemic, as is the case in the United States.
« It's a scourge. We have made a lot of progress in reducing smoking, but in the past two or three years, smoking has been making a comeback with vaping », Is sad David Bowles, President of the Federation of Private Education Institutions.
He even goes so far as to compare this scourge to that of sex exchanges. " Sexting is a huge problem (in schools), but vaping is one too "Insists the one who is also director general of Collège Charles-Lemoyne.
The Quebec Association of School Leadership Staff (AQPDE) surveyed its members and 74% of them believe that vaping is a significant problem. In several schools, the directorates estimate that a quarter of young people are vaping. In some places, this percentage rises to 50%.
