amount smoked, especially among young people aged 15 to 24, who are most
at risk for taking up smoking. This file contains the data collected
between February and June 2008 from about 10,000 respondents. 

Definitions, data sources and methods: survey number 4440. 




Date:	June, 2009 

To:	Users of the Canadian Tobacco Use Monitoring Survey (Cycle 1
2008) 

From:	 Jacqueline Mayda, Director, Special Surveys Division 

Subject: Canadian Tobacco Use Monitoring Survey (CTUMS) 

Please be advised that an edit was mistakenly applied to the Cycle 1
2008 data, that impacted data for questions PS_Q30, PS_Q40 and MU_Q40.
Because of this mistake, Statistics Canada will be issuing a new version
of the Cycle 1 2008 data files.
