Mohawk Council of Kahnawa:ke taking Ontario to court over changes to online gaming
IGaming Ontario, the provincially regulated online gaming market, was launched in April, making Ontario the first jurisdiction in Canada to allow people to wager on casino games, sporting events and other gambling activities through online websites and smartphone apps from registered third-party operators.
The Mohawk Council of Kahnawa:ke argues iGaming Ontario cannot conduct or manage gaming that is taking place on private operators’ sites. The council says the decision to take iGaming Ontario and the Attorney General of Ontario to court was a “last resort.” “Ontario’s actions are causing a significant loss of important revenues for our community,” Ratsenhaienhs Mike Delisle, Jr., wrote in a news release.
“Until these actions were taken, we were operating legally, safely and successfully across Canada. To be shut out of Ontario — by far the largest province in Canada — will have devastating effects on a source of income that has supplemented programs and services in our community for the last two decades.”The MCK said it is concerned the province’s changes to online gaming “disregards the expertise and the rights of First Nations to operate and regulate safe and responsible gaming.
