The legal framework, in short

Under the Criminal Code, gambling is run or licensed by the provinces; in Nova Scotia that means ALC.ca, operated by the Atlantic Lottery Corporation (ALC). Nova Scotia has no licensing system for private online casinos: ALC.ca, run by the Atlantic Lottery Corporation for the four Atlantic provinces, is the only provincially authorised site, and offshore platforms operate without provincial oversight. Using an offshore site is not an offence for the player; the trade-off is weaker protection and slower dispute resolution. As in land-based venues, 19 is the minimum age in Nova Scotia, checked against government ID.

Gambling responsibly in Downtown Antigonish

First and foremost, gambling is a paid pastime. Keep clear money and time limits, and do not play after drinking or when you are upset. If you are unsure about your habits, call the Nova Scotia Problem Gambling Help Line at 1-888-347-8888; the service covers the whole province, Downtown Antigonish included. Your family doctor and the province's addiction services can also arrange free counselling, for players and their families.
