So the Government of Canada has finally gone with larger, more graphic warnings on cigarette packaging. They've gone from 50% of the package to 75% of the package... and the pictures are much more graphic. There was some debate a few months back about whether or not Health Canada would go with the new warnings... for some reason they were hesitating... or it was stuck somewhere. Now, it's gotten unstuck and we can only hope that it will make a difference.
I suppose after a while, these warnings and packaging pictures just begin to blend into the background for regular smokers. They become blind to them... so changing them often is probably a good thing.
