Ontario gaming laws provide more clarity!

It seems that everything is progressing on the laws in Ontario... Indeed, a new published this Wednesday, May 19 seems to communicate on the fact that each Canada Online Casino registered in Ontario may also be present in most Canadian provinces.

A Critical Topic for Ontario's Plans

The published document addresses one of the most critical political questions weighing on Ontario's plans to allow private operators within a regulatory framework for gambling.

THE Canada is still a very sensitive market for unregulated sites and not allowed. Casinos and sports betting sites abound on the Internet, without the state having control over them, without any taxes and without any regulations on this subject.

Ontario wants all applicants to cease their illegal activities in the province in order to move them online to the new legal market. The goal is to migrate existing eligible clients located in Ontario to controlled and authorized gambling sites by the CAJO. But will these sites have to cease their operations in Canada?

Operators will be required to comply with all applicable laws

This question is a real topic between the CAJO and online gaming operators. In fact, they wonder if registration in Ontario will affect them in the different operations they can have in other Canadian provinces.

The CAJO simply responds to this general expectation by explaining that licensed operators will just have to comply with all applicable laws. In short, bookmakers and Canadians will have to attest that their activities in the regulated Ontario market are also compliant. compliant with the Penal Code of Canada , when they operate in other provinces where no regulation is in place.

In addition, the new law and the AGCO will not be able to force operators to cease operations in the other provinces and it seems that this declaration aims to reassure all the sites!
