OP-ED: RFK Jr. is right on nicotine pouches, while Canada barrels ahead with bad policy

RFK Jr. has expressed false views like WIFI causing brain damage. Despite this, he is correct about the safety of nicotine pouches, supported by Health Canada. Canada's restrictions on pouch sales are deemed counterproductive and hypocritical compared to Sweden's successful use. Embracing pouches as a cessation tool, as seen in Sweden, could significantly reduce smoking rates and related illnesses in Canada. The focus should shift to harm reduction and adopting successful strategies from other countries.
