I'm just curious about what the age restrictions for products are in canada, specifically ontario. I want to purchase a pipe but I'm not sure if I'll be sold one without being ID'd at a convenience store. I buy lighters from him all the time though without a question asked. Just curious what the age restriction would be on pipes (i'm 17)
AGE You cannot sell or supply tobacco to anyone under 19 years of age (the age under federal law is 18). It is not illegal for someone under 19 to have tobacco. But the person who sold or gave it to them has broken the law. IDENTIFICATION If someone appears to be under 19, you must ask for identification that proves they are 19 or older to sell them tobacco. The only exception is if you know the person is 19 or over (for example, a family member). If you sell tobacco, ask for one of these pieces of identification : an Ontario driver's licence a Canadian passport a Canadian citizenship card a Canadian Armed Forces ID card a photo card issued by the LLBO. If the customer is not from Ontario or Canada, you may accept other identification. It should show a recent photo and be issued by a government authority. This is from the government site. Now as for selling pipes and things like that, I guess it would be up to the people at the head shop you go to. Curios tho, you say you are 17, but under your handle it says 19 ?????? TC Stoned
Yeah, I saw that before, but it says nothing on actual products themselves. I did a bit of research but I can't find any laws speaking directly about products. As for my handle I just chose that age randomly so that I could sign up quickly
