The inside flap will refer consumer to the health information message on the slide. Before December 23, you may see an old cover, an old inside, an old overwrap on cartons or any combination of the above mixed with the new packaging. Imperial Tobacco has chosen to display the government's health information in two different ways. Each health information message will appear in English on one side of the leaflet and in French on the other side. This of course does not include incidental cost, manpower, legal, and other costs.
Regulations require that there be an expanded list of emissions.
They were not on packages before, because they were not required. But while new emissions will appear on the sides of packs, the product itself has not changed. They will be displayed on all tobacco products by June 26, 2001. Health Canada has identified the emissions that will appear on packages. They are hydrogen cyanide, benzene, and formaldehyde.
