Tobacco Informatics Monitoring System (TIMS)

<strong>Please note:</strong>
TIMS is no longer being updated, but we're leaving access to the database for you to use as is.

Results at Your Fingertips! TIMS is an innovative web-based application designed to provide easy access to reliable, up-to-date data on key tobacco control indicators.

  • Search hundreds of key indicators organized under familiar tobacco control topics – current smoking, exposure to SHS at work, attitudes toward the tobacco industry and more
  • Customize your results by population of interest or level of geography – age, sex, education, occupation, or income; national, Ontario, health region, or TCAN
  • Select data from key national and provincial sources – CTUMS, CCHS, YSS, Census of Canada, or CAMH Monitor
  • Choose multiple display options – tables, bar and line graphs, or maps
  • Use results for reports and presentations – print or download your findings using the TIMS toolbar

Start using TIMS now!
