Short answer: “Native cigarettes”, also called “native smokes”, is a common Canadian retail term for cigarette brands such as Canadian Classics, BB, Nexus, Playfare and Putters. They are usually sold by the carton or by the pack. At Native Smokes Delivered, cartons start at $35 and 20-packs at $5.50, tax-free (prices checked October 7, 2026).
What “native cigarettes” means
Shoppers in Canada use “native cigarettes”, “native smokes” and “native cartons” for the same group of brands. The term describes how these brands are sold and searched for. This guide uses it the way shoppers do and makes no claim about who makes a given brand or where it is made. Details we can confirm, such as the pack size and the number of cigarettes in a carton, are listed on each product page.
If you have seen the term on a sign or in a search result and want to know what it covers, the short version is: a set of cigarette brands, sold in cartons and packs, with prices that are listed openly on each product page. The sections below cover the brands, the formats, the prices, how ordering works and who can buy.
Native cigarette brands
We carry 11 cigarette brands: BB, Canadian Classics, Canadian Goose, Discount, DK’s, Dumont, Nexus, Playfare, Putters, Rolled Gold and Time, plus a line of cartons sold under the name Premium. Each brand has its own page, for example Canadian Classics, Putters cigarettes and Nexus.
For every brand with its formats and prices in one place, see our guide to native cigarette brands in Canada.
Cartons and packs
Most listings come in one of two formats: a carton or a single pack. On the carton listings where the product page states the count, such as Canadian Classics Original and Nexus Full, a carton holds 10 packs of 20, which is 200 cigarettes. Single packs hold 20 cigarettes. A few listings, such as Canadian Goose Full Premium and Playfare Full, also come in 25-cigarette packs.
Under federal law, cigarettes cannot be sold in a package of fewer than 20 (Tobacco and Vaping Products Act, section 10). For the brand-by-brand counts, see how many cigarettes are in a carton.
