“Decreasing the sale and consumption of illegal tobacco is a core part of our work,” Mark Furey, minister of Service Nova Scotia said in a news release.
“Contraband tobacco takes tobacco tax revenue away from public services Nova Scotians rely on, compromises public safety through links to organized crime and undermines provincial health objectives.”
