<p>Health Canada’s 2016/2017 Canadian Student Tobacco, Alcohol and Drugs Survey (CSTADS; formerly the Youth Smoking Survey) is a biennial, pan-Canadian, school-based survey of a generalizable sample of students in grades 7 through 12. CSTADS (YSS) has been coordinated centrally by the Propel Centre for Population Health Impact (Propel) at the University of Waterloo in partnership with Health Canada since 2004, under the leadership of Dr. Steve Manske.
