Three Toronto-area casinos are facing penalties after failing to prevent underage patrons from gambling “on multiple occasions,” the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) says.
In a news release on Thursday, the AGCO said it slapped $151,000 in penalties to Great Canadian Entertainment after finding minors allegedly got inside the casino floors and occasionally partook in gambling activities on four different occasions. They allege this happened twice at the Great Canadian Casino in Toronto, once at the Casino Ajax and once at Pickering Casino Resort.
The Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto faces a fine of $51,000, while the remaining casinos each face a $50,000 penalty.
