Rise of e-cigarette use among teens

“At age 19, residents of British Columbia are allowed to smoke or vape in certain public areas and cannot be refused medical treatment under any circumstances.”

1.) Construct a paper discussing this age limit, and the difference between smoking and vaping, and their effects on the human body.

2.) Then conclude your paper with your opinion on whether the medical system, being publicly funded, should pay for a lifetime of smoking and their related debilitating illnesses. We’re looking for a good argument here, and your final verdict.

500 word/2 page minimum, typed, hard copy.

Sophomores, typically 15 years of age, second year of high school.

For the debate: research both sides of #1 and #2 above and be ready to debate next class.
