Gambling for the Lottery

As the Canadian online casino gambling industry emerges, it seems as though the huge trend right now is toward a gambling industry strongly linked to the provincial lottery system. The lottery is the most popular form of gambling in the world and several Canadian provinces announced plans to regulate online casino gambling industry and allow the state lottery to offer a chance internet gambling site in conjunction with offering the state lottery via internet. Several Canadian provinces are making this gentle move into a provincial internet gambling industry and Quebec is the latest province to announced the change.

The Canadian gamblers are mostly very excited for the new legalized options for online casino gambling in the province. The only detractors are the groups and organizations that tout that the internet gambling industry breeds higher rates of problem gambling and more social issues. Really though, studies conducted all over the world have indicated that the ratio of gamblers to problem gamblers basically stays the same, the perceived increase in problem gambling is actually only because there are more gamblers playing and gambling at the online casinos and betting sites.

The real draw for an online casino gambling industry in Quebec is the potential revenue that internet gambling and an internet lottery will have for the province. Quebec is like many provinces and governments all over the world – it’s struggling to keep the budget level and a fully legalized internet gambling industry will bring in roughly $50 million into the government budget over a span of three years.
