Quebec Illegal Online Casinos Thrive Amid Police Inaction
Wild Casino

Quebec illegal online casinos thrive despite the fact that organized betting businesses are allowed to operate only under supervision.

Quebec police are ignoring online casinos because they are based in other countries. Normand Gosselin runs his business from a bungalow in L’Ancienne-Lorette in Quebec. Royal Wins is based on Toronto but its activities are illegal in Australia. It got business assistance for dealing with COVID-19. It is generalizing the problem as there are still shareholders and managers stationed in Canada.

Online casinos are illegal in Canada, but the Montreal police is reluctant to take action. The Public Security Minister's office is unhappy about the lack of action on the issue. The Sûreté du Quebec confirms that illegal online gambling is in the municipal law enforcement’s jurisdiction. However, the police force is an independent body and has no intentions of dealing with the problem unless a special budget is provided for the cause.
