We’re still early into the New Year,  but if you’re having a hard time with your resolution to quit smoking, take heart.

National Non-Smoking week is coming up and Weedless Wednesday is on January 17th.  

The theme this year is “Finding the Right Moment to Start the Conversation” and Bruce Krentz with the Northern Health Region tells us here what the focus is of the week.

“January 15th to the 23rd is National Non-Smoking week. This year, nationally, we are focusing a bit on vaping and keeping youth nicotine free. Vaping continues to grow in our country so we would really like to turn the tide on that.”

Krentz shared that smokers helpline.ca provides a number of resources for those who are needing support for their quit-smoking efforts.
