  • Since E-Quit's launch in 2002, hundreds of people have written Health Canada to praise the program. People like the non-judgmental and supportive tone of the messages. They enjoy the program's pace and the sense of accomplishment they achieve by reaching each goal. " Made me feel like I had my own personal coach to help me through my day."
  • " Taught me how to resist impulsive urges to smoke."
  • "Reinforced my will when I forgot why I chose to quit."
  • "Timely, depending on where I was in the withdrawal or craving stage."
  • "I have been a smoker for +20 years. Now, two-a-day, but I will get there."
  • "While I am still a work in progress, I do not feel that I am failing."
  • "I smoked up to a pack a day for 23 years... I have not had a ‘smoke' for 3 weeks and I feel great!!!!"
  • "I... have smoked for over 30 years... The messages... were very easy to understand...like [they were] from a friend and not a medical expert... Yes, I have gained weight but I do not care because my tongue looks like a tongue now and I can actually taste my food, take deep breaths and smell how really sweet the air is. My kids are thrilled and so am I."
  • "Thanks for saving me $6.30 a day for the rest of my life ... 18 days and I feel great..."
  • "As an 11-year smoker this is the most success that I have ever had -- this time I used only this program and will power. Although there have been a few set backs, I am trudging forward to a smokefree life!"
  • "I'm proud of myself."
  • "I LOVE being a non-smoker!"
