Approximately 46 jobs will be impacted by the planned closure of Sarnia’s casino, a spokesperson with the operator says.

Robert Mitchell said Gateway Casinos and Entertainment, which also operates casinos in Point Edward, Chatham-Kent, London, and elsewhere in Ontario, learned about the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp. (OLG) decision last week.

The Gateway Casino Sarnia closure is the result of an Optional Slots at Racetracks Program (OSARP) sunset clause taking effect March 31, 2026, OLG officials said this week.
