Sports betting was legalized in Canada about six months ago and was recently launched in the country’s largest province, Ontario. Michael Lipton is one of Canada’s leading gaming attorney where he’s a senior partner in the Toronto office of Dickinson Wright. He explains how the legalization process went and how it will be implemented in the different provinces of Canada. In Ontario, dozens of sports betting sites and technology providers have been licensed but there are still a few areas where it’s uncertain what is legal and what is not or how it will be implemented. Lipton spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros from his home in Ontario in June.
