As Alberta prepares to launch its regulated online gambling market, the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission (AGLCC) has confirmed it will not permit betting on political events or elections. The decision, announced by Alberta Igaming Corporation (AIGC) chief Dan Reeve, establishes a clear boundary for the new market, prioritizing consumer protection and the integrity of the political process. The province is also implementing stricter responsible gambling standards, requiring operators to obtain RG Check accreditation before launch.
