GFN•TV: THR News, Expert Opinions, and Interviews
Canada’s approach to nicotine pouch regulation has created a system that puts pharmacists at the centre of access to authorised products — while unauthorised pouches remain widely available. Has the policy achieved its intended goals, or has it created new problems?
In this GFN Science Lab presentation from GFN 2026 in Warsaw, pharmacist Todd Prochnau examines Canada’s pharmacy-centric regulatory model and its implications for public health, smoking cessation and tobacco harm reduction.
The Global Forum on Nicotine (GFN) has taken place every year since 2014 and is the only international conference to focus on how vapes, nicotine pouches, Swedish snus and heated tobacco can help people switch away from smoking. Building on the success of an event that attracts hundreds of in-person participants and thousands of online delegates, this is the homepage of GFN•TV, the broadcast arm of the GFN stable.
GFN•TV regularly broadcasts GFN•TV news and interviews, given by Brent Stafford. We also livestream the annual GFN conference, live from Warsaw and release all the session videos and GFN•TV Commentary Team discussions post event.
Tune in to hear world-leading experts, tobacco harm reduction advocates and nicotine consumers discuss the latest scientific, regulatory and policy developments.
From our unique annual event, to year-round reporting of the issues that matter in tobacco harm reduction, GFN has got it covered.
