Back Alberta Leans Toward Online Gambling Legalization

Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission is exploring online gambling legalization and the areas with legalized gambling including British Columbia, Ontario, Mantitoba and Quebec.

The commission may opt for legalization based on comments made by Joe Ceci, the provincial government's new Finance Minister.

“AGLC is a significant revenue line for the province (contributing about 5 percent of all government revenues) … and they have come and told me about their hopes and dreams for the future,” Ceci said.

“I don’t stand anywhere yet because I haven’t seen the results of the commission’s consultations with industry providers of online gaming systems.”

Knowledge of modern online gambling and the technologies employed by operators to monitor money laundering and underage/problem gambling will be required.
