OLG grants new casino license

Great Canadian Gaming Corp. has obtained OLG’s permission to install a casino in Canada with Clairvest Group Inc.

Canada.- International gaming companies Great Canadian Gaming Corp. and Clairvest Group Inc. have obtained a casino license in Ontario, as the local Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) approved the project. Both companies have signed an agreement to install and operate the gaming center in Ontario, Canada.

The license allows gaming companies to operate casino and three slots operations in west Toronto for the next 20 years. The news were revealed after Canadian authorities have granted Great Canadian Gaming Corp. another license in Greater Toronto Area months ago. However, the region is demanding further control in the casino industry in order to avoid money laundering.

Rod Baker, chief executive officer of Great Canadian, called the latest contract a “true milestone” for the company. “We thank OLG for their confidence in our company,” he said
