Nicotine Warning
Important health information you need to know
⚠️ Warning: Nicotine is Highly Addictive
Vaping products contain nicotine, a highly addictive substance. Once you start, it can be very difficult to stop. If you don't currently use nicotine products, don't start.
Health Risks of Nicotine
Nicotine is a toxic substance that affects your body in many ways. Understanding these risks is important for making informed decisions.
Cardiovascular Effects
Nicotine raises blood pressure, increases heart rate, and can contribute to heart disease and stroke risk.
Addiction
Nicotine is as addictive as heroin and cocaine. It changes brain chemistry, creating physical dependence.
Brain Development
Nicotine harms adolescent brain development, affecting memory, concentration, learning, and impulse control.
Pregnancy Risks
Nicotine during pregnancy can cause premature birth, low birth weight, and developmental problems.
Who Should NOT Use Vaping Products
Vaping products are not appropriate for everyone. You should NOT use nicotine vaping products if you are:
- Under the legal age in your province
- A non-smoker who has never used nicotine products
- Pregnant or breastfeeding
- Someone with heart conditions or high blood pressure
- Allergic to nicotine or any ingredients in vaping products
- Taking certain medications — consult your doctor
If You Don't Smoke, Don't Vape
Vaping products are designed as an alternative for adult smokers. If you don't currently use nicotine products, starting to vape will expose you to addiction and health risks you don't currently have.
Nicotine-Free Options
If you're looking to reduce or eliminate nicotine intake, we carry 0mg (nicotine-free) e-liquids. These allow you to enjoy vaping without nicotine addiction.
0mg E-Liquids
Available in many flavours, 0mg e-liquids contain no nicotine. Ideal for those who have successfully quit nicotine but enjoy vaping.
Stepping Down
Many vapers gradually reduce their nicotine strength over time (e.g., 20mg → 12mg → 6mg → 3mg → 0mg) to eventually quit.

Safe Handling & Storage
E-liquids contain concentrated nicotine. Handle them safely:
- Keep away from children and pets. Nicotine is toxic if swallowed. Store products in a secure location.
- Avoid skin contact. Nicotine can be absorbed through skin. Wash immediately if e-liquid contacts skin.
- Store properly. Keep e-liquids in their original child-resistant containers, away from heat and light.
- Dispose responsibly. Don't pour e-liquid down drains. Check local disposal guidelines.
In Case of Accidental Ingestion
If e-liquid is swallowed, contact Poison Control immediately: 1-800-268-9017 (Canada). Seek medical attention right away, especially for children.
