Alberta is preparing a major overhaul of how online sports betting and internet-based casino gambling are offered in the Western Canadian province.
Yes, after years of discussion, debate, and lobbying, Alberta’s government is on the cusp of launching a new and competitive market for iGaming. In Canada, the term “iGaming” means both mobile sports wagering and online slots and table games.
In short, the province wants to authorize some private-sector competition. When the new market goes live, it will allow the likes of bet365, DraftKings, FanDuel, and many others to offer mobile sportsbooks and Alberta online casinos under local regulation.
