Starting yesterday (April 4), residents in Canada&rsquo;s largest province can legally gamble online on both online casino games and sports betting via their mobile device or computer. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">iGambling Ontario, the subsidiary of Alcohol and Gambling Commission of Ontario (AGCO), has responsibility for regulating the new market, as well as issuing licences to operators and suppliers. Nearly 1,300 jobs will be created in Ontario due to the launch, according to a report released by PlayCanada, which tracks the Canadian gambling market.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">It&rsquo;s been almost three years since Ontario&rsquo;s government revealed plans to end the lottery&rsquo;s online gambling monopoly in April 2019. In 2020, the government introduced legislation to allow for a licensing regime and in September 2021, Ontario published its final standards for online betting and gambling. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">The AGCO has approved a raft of igambling operators and suppliers in recent weeks, including LeoVegas Group, Rush Street Interactive, Gambling Realms, Bragg Gambling Group, 888 Holdings, Inspired Entertainment, Kambi, Kindred, Pariplay, FanDuel and BetMGM. Play&rsquo;n GO has been awarded a supplier licence that will see the company&rsquo;s portfolio made available for players when the regulated market opens.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">More operators are expected to join the market in the months to come. At least 30 have applied for registration. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">Last week, Google announced an update to its advertising policy to include ads from regulated sports betting operators in Ontario ahead of launch of the province&rsquo;s online gambling market. The policy change will allow operators to run adverts for online sports betting, online casino and daily fantasy sports.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">In order to qualify for Google ads, sports betting operators in Ontario must first be certified by the Internet company in a process that will require them to present their gambling licences. iGambling Ontario, a subsidiary of the Alcohol and Gambling Commission of Ontario (AGCO), manages licensing and internet gambling provided by private gambling companies.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">Regulated operators will have to follow advertising rules from the AGCO, which forbids them from advertising inducements, bonuses, or credits to players. Operators must also provide players with self-exclusion tools accessible via their websites.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\">On its Advertising Policies page, Google states:<em> &ldquo;We support responsible gambling advertising and abide by local gambling laws and industry standards, so we don&rsquo;t allow certain kinds of gambling-related advertising.
