Sadly, Canada is little better. They've done an excellent job of vilifying vaping, and most provinces have taxed it so heavily as to discourage it over other tobacco use.
I was a pack a day smoker for more than 20 years, and was finally able to quit with the use of a JUUL. I later transitioned open pod vapes, and then to lower-strength freebase nicotine (20mg/ml). I was fortunate enough to get into DIY before our regulations made it pretty well impractical for mouth-to-lung vapers.
