Candy-flavoured tobacco is clearly aimed at kids

Bull s**t.

I've been a smoker for 25 years, and recently (last 5 years) switched to a pipe in an effort to cut cost. From being a pack a day smoker, I have reduced to about a 1/5 th of a pack a day. On May 31st, I will be forced turn to the black market to obtain my tobacco (Captain Black Gold, vanilla scented) or switch back to cigarettes.

I do live in Nova Scotia, so naturally alcohol flavoured tobacco got an exception.

I can suggest better options than Cpt Black (any variety) that will probably fit your tastes without breaking the law. I agree, the idiocy that is tobacco control these days is silly. And what the hell - vanilla (and other sweet things) have been used as toppings for tobaccos absolutely and unequivocably marketed at adults for more than a century. Who are these people, and who has taken their minds?

Please do suggest... Cpt Black has been my balance between budget, availability, and flavour.

"unequivocably marketed at adults"

Exactly... you see so many kids walking around with a pipe clamped between their teeth.
