Gambling in Canada is regulated provincially. Ontario opened a competitive private iGaming market in 2022 under AGCO/iGaming Ontario; Alberta followed in July 2026 under AGLC. Other provinces run their own lottery-operated platforms. Our rankings are province-specific — there is no such thing as one "best casino in Canada".
