New Brunswick Weighs Letting Private Online Casinos Take On Atlantic Lottery

A phone full of offshore betting apps glows over a map of New Brunswick as $250 million drains out of the region, Atlantic Lottery's 35% online share fills a bar, and a closing card reads: New Brunswick weighs opening online gambling to private operators.

Finance Minister René Legacy says the province is "exploring options around regulating private online operators," as Atlantic Lottery estimates unregulated sites pull more than $250 million a year out of the region. There is no bill, consultation or date yet.
