    Agreed, but it's the fact of the governments position on gambling, compared to the US. I'm always going to use Pinnacle, but it's a positive to see their stance on this.

    The next step could be an attempt to outlaw internet gaming for Canadians.

    Canada doesn't have the means or wherewithal to do what the US does with the almighty DOJ, so I don;t think that is a concern but who knows. I wish they would just grant licenses to established sportsbooks and take their cut.

    They're going to try to regulate internet gambling somehow. They'd be foolish not to

    Scary to think that they may attempt to ban betting on offshore sites, and force us to pay -120 or higher at their government controlled sportsbooks
