Join us in protecting Canadian youth from the harmful effects of nicotine products by signing an E-Petition to take action on nicotine pouches.

Available in a variety of enticing flavours including berry frost, chill mint, and tropical breeze, nicotine pouches are currently legally being sold to children of any age in easy-to-access locations such as gas stations and convenience stores. Nicotine is a highly addictive drug that can interfere with healthy brain development in youth. Together, we can urge the Government of Canada to protect youth by: 

• Requiring nicotine pouches to be sold on a prescription-only basis or temporarily suspending the legal sale of nicotine pouches until proper regulations are formed 
• Ensuring no other new nicotine products are approved by Health Canada (except on a prescription-only basis) until adequate regulations are in place 

Help make a meaningful difference in protecting the health and future of our youth by signing this petition today! 

THE SCENE:
Picture a swanky cocktail party with a red carpet entry, an assortment of fusion food stations, signature event cocktails, a photo area, and more! Whimsical decorations, lively music, and a feast for the senses surround!

THE ENTERTAINMENT:
An outgoing, charismatic host (think part circus ring leader, part MC), welcomes and engages the crowd, keeping the evening moving by directing attention to feature performances popping up in different spaces throughout the evening.

Imagine a stellar vocalist, an aerial acrobat, a magician, a comedian, and a live auctioneer throughout the night! Last but not least, we’ll include the tried and true silent auction and other small fundraising fun throughout the evening.

WHAT MAKES THIS EVENT UNIQUE?
This event is intended to entertain while raising funds to support our mission. With the audience in mind, we’ve lined up a fast-paced evening of food, jaw dropping entertainment and fun along with impactful moments from those at the heart of our cause.

The Saskatchewan Quit Smoking Challenge ran from December 4th, 2023 until January 31st, 2024 to help support Saskatchewan residents who wished to quit or cut back their smoking. We are so grateful for our 630+ members of the Facebook Support Group, which continues to grow every day, and to the 563 participants who registered for the 2023-2024 challenge! Reading the inspiring quit journeys of our members and the kind words of support they provided to fellow participants was truly inspiring. Although the challenge has ended, the Sask Quits Facebook group will continue to provide support and resources to the community year-round.
