THRA Logo

“While there is a fair amount of good scientific news regarding vaping products lately, our rights and freedom as vapers are being eroded. We are launching a grass roots movement to find like minded individuals and form an organization dedicated to advocating vaper’s rights in Canada. We need to get involved. We need to make a difference. We need to ensure that vapers are heard and current research showing the effectiveness, quality and safety of vaping products are properly presented.”

  • THRA is the Canadian advocates for vaper’s rights
  • THRA was formed in 2014 by former members of the now defunct CAVR advocacy group to raise awareness and protect our right to access tobacco alternatives.
  • THRA was created as an answer to the anti-vaping lobby efforts to ban tobacco harm reduction products and in the belief that there is strength in joining individuals together.
  • THRA is not a vendor trade organization.
  • The initial structure will be an appointed 5-member board of directors.
  • THRA board of director members will be all volunteers and receive no financial compensation.
  • THRA bylaws will limit the number of vendors allowed to 1/4 or less to prevent industry interests having a majority vote.
  • THRA will be a federally registered non-profit organization.
  • Although donations to THRA will be accepted from many sources, THRA will have no financial or policy agreements with the electronic cigarette, tobacco or pharmaceutical industries.
  • THRA maintains a web site at THRA.ca | The Tobacco Harm Reduction Association of Canada – for the purpose of providing access for members and the general public to articles, research studies, petitions, legal actions, pending legislation and educational materials regarding electronic cigarettes.

Global Forum on Nicotine (GFN) http://ectaofcanada.com/global-forum-on-nicotine-gfn/ Mon, 02 Jun 2014 05:02:37 +0000 http://ectaofcanada.com/?p=874 Issues involving the nature of nicotine, its science, regulation and politics, have become one of the hottest topics in contemporary public policy. We face huge opportunities but also significant potential threats, and all of it while dealing with beliefs that are often both entrenched and ill-informed. There are hundreds of millions of lives, hundreds of billions of dollars and ultimately the reputations of many groups and individuals at stake. Getting a strong grasp of the facts and the key players involved is an essential step in moving in effective directions.

In no place is there a better opportunity to grasp these issues than at the Global Forum on Nicotine. It brings together an exceptional group of knowledgeable and engaged people from the full array of players in this field. People with careers in science, medicine, regulation, public health, marketing, research and development, consumer advocacy, technology and entrepreneurship.

The city is lovely in mid-June, the venue is pleasant and practical, and the opportunities to learn and interact with others is unparalleled. I urge anyone with an interest in the future directions of nicotine to join us for what promises to be another outstanding conference.
