Gaming and Gambling in Canada

Canada is a country where gaming and gambling is open and accepted for everybody over the age of 18 and takes the form of ‘scratch tickets’ costing as little as $1, computerized games where you choose numbers in advance and bet that the same numbers will be drawn, BINGO, horse races, and casinos. Prizes range from free tickets to tens of millions of dollars, and for 96% of the population, this is considered an acceptable form of recreation. Learn more from About.com Canada Guide Elke Mairs.
