Canada has different vaping laws depending on where you are in the country, which can make knowing where you can vape confusing. In this guide, we’ll share everything you need to know about where you can vape in Canada, including indoor areas, public spaces, events and transportation.
In Canada, there are no federal regulations about where you can and can’t vape. Each province and muncipality has its own rules about where you can and can’t vape.
You can learn more about vaping laws by province in our guide to vaping laws in Canada.
Many provinces ban vaping in indoor areas, including shopping centres, restaurants and bars, hospitals, group living facilities and workplaces. This includes Ontario, Quebec, British Colombia, Alberta, and many others.
Some provinces also ban using vapour products near doorways, windows or air intakes, so it’s important to understand the laws where you are.
You may be able to vape in private indoor areas, including in people’s homes. It’s always a good idea to check with the owner or resident before vaping on their property and practice good vaping etiquette whenever you vape around others.
Most Canadian provinces ban vaping in indoor public spaces, but you may be allowed to vape outdoors in public. The rules usually depend on the situation, and in many locations, vaping is permitted where smoking is allowed.
For example, you can usually vape on sidewalks and in public squares, but you may not be allowed to vape on beaches or in some parks.
Be cautious before vaping in outdoor public spaces, and refrain if you see any no-smoking signs.
Most provinces ban vaping at indoor public events. Many indoor event venues, including arenas, concert halls and theatres, are strictly smoke-free buildings, and the same rules are also applied to vaping.
Vaping is generally permitted where smoking is allowed, which may include some outdoor public events. If you aren’t sure, check with the event organiser or a member of staff before attempting to vape at an outdoor public event.
In Canada, trains, buses, and ferries are smoke-free, and the same rules are applied to vaping. Vaping is also prohibited in most stations, so search for a smoking area if you want to vape before or after travel.
Some train routes offer smoke stops at certain stations. Check your route before travelling to find out whether your journey includes a smoke stop, where you’ll be able to get off the train and vape.
While you should always follow the rules or regulations around where you can and can’t vape, it’s also important to follow good vaping etiquette in the places where vaping is allowed:
