Tobacco in Canada is a complex subject. While I agree the infamously high prices of cigarettes in Canada go into play, I would argue that tax exempt cigarettes quotas in reserves[0] and the overall lack of oversight in Reserves creates a perfect haven for contraband, distribution of tax-free cigarettes and "indian smokes". its sad how the Indian Act is still in effect today and how politically impossible the situation is. I think that countries without these huge loopholes might see less problems from bootlegging as we see here. 0:https://www.ontario.ca/document/tobacco-tax/first-nations-cigarette-allocation-system https://www.ontario.ca/document/tobacco-tax/first-nations-ci...
