World No Tobacco Day (WNTD) is celebrated around the world on May 31 each year. World No Tobacco Day serves as a reminder that all tobacco use is deadly. It is for this reason that the Government of Canada remains committed to working with others to prevent and reduce tobacco use. The Member States of the World Health Organization (WHO) created WNTD in 1987 to draw global attention to the tobacco epidemic and the preventable death and disease it causes. WNTD encourages Canadians to reflect on the heavy toll tobacco use places on us all. However, it is also an opportunity to mark the progress people have made towards reducing tobacco consumption.
Health-related events are always in season. Use World No Tobacco Day to target potential advertisers like health centers, doctors' offices, pharmacies, dieticians, physical therapists, and other health-related businesses.
