Starting January 1, 2025, Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick, PEI, and Yukon will implement a new vaping tax as part of a coordinated federal-provincial framework.
According to Provincial governments, this tax is “aimed at discouraging vaping, especially among young people.”
What they claim: This move is part of a broader effort across Canada to address high vaping rates among young people.
What it means: Tax Increase: Provincial tax will double the existing federal excise tax on vaping products. This means that consumers will pay $2 per two millilitres of vaping liquids for the first 10 millilitres, and $2 per 10 millilitres for volumes above that.
The effect of these changes will impact vaping product prices as follows:
