How Casinos in Canada Are Licensed
Only six venues in Canada hold a casino operator's licence under the Gambling Act 2003. The casino operator's licence is the only one that permits casino table games — blackjack, roulette, baccarat, poker — alongside VLT machines. Every other licensed gambling venue in the country is a VLTs pub or club and falls under a different licence class (Class 4).
The official provincial gambling regulators regulates both classes, but casino operations also answer to the Gambling Commission under a separate casino operator’s licence that specifies hours, minimum entry age (20, higher than Class 4’s 18), and host-responsibility obligations at the venue.
No new casino licences have been issued in Canada since a 2001 moratorium. The six venues above are the full and permanent set.
If you’re looking for somewhere to play that isn’t one of the six casinos, see the licensed VLT venues directory or pick your region.
