Coalition for a

Smoke-Free Nova Scotia

Tobacco Control Report Card

During 2000-2001, members of the Coalition for a Smoke-Free Nova Scotia participated in the development of a Tobacco Control Strategy for Nova Scotia.

While a number of the components of Nova Scotia’s Tobacco Control Strategy were beginning to have some effect, a long-term commitment to adequately fund and implement all the components of the Tobacco Control Strategy was essential if there was to be a sustained impact and further decreases in smoking rates.

Smoke-Free Nova Scotia’s Tobacco Control Report Card was a first step in taking stock of where we were in 2001 and what needed to be done in the future.
