The number of Canadian youth trying tobacco products has continued to fall, Health Canada's 2004-2005 Youth Smoking Survey has found. Only 21 per cent of youth in grades five through nine had tried any type of tobacco product. This represents a 50 per cent reduction over a 10-year period from the rate in 1994.
