Parents Should Ask Where Kids Are Actually Getting Products
Parents do not need a perfect policy essay. They need to know where kids are getting products and who is being held responsible.
The missing map
If youth are getting products from inspected stores, Alberta should say that and enforce hard. If they are getting products from online sellers, older friends, social media, or illegal channels, Bill 208 needs to address that too.
AGLC's public contraband information shows Alberta can explain illegal product indicators and reporting contacts. Parents deserve the same clarity on youth vaping access.
A reasonable parent ask
Before Bill 208 is treated as the whole answer, publish the source map. Show the access points, the enforcement plan, and the follow-up measures parents can understand.
