Cause of the Shortage
It turns out, Canadians just can't get enough of the good stuff. We're talking about our beloved tobacco products, of course.
- Everyone's quitting
- Everyone's quitting cold turkey (but still smoking)
- The government's just messing with us (as usual)
Effects of the Shortage
We're not just talking about the effects on our economy, our health, or our collective sanity. No, no. We're talking about the real effects.
- Our dentists are having a blast
- The black market is booming (in a totally not-organized-crime kind of way)
- The government's just shrugging and saying "oops" (again)
What We're Doing About it
We're working tirelessly (get it?) to find solutions. Or, at the very least, we're trying not to think about it too much.
- We're importing from other countries (wherever that's not a thing)
- We're rationing like it's the 40s all over again
- We're just making up new words to describe the shortage (e.g. "Tobaccy McShortyface")
