Season 3 Episode 16

Listen on your preferred podcast app.

On the year’s final Gaming News Canada Show presented by Osler, Hoskin and Harcourt LLP, U.S. gaming analyst and journalist Steve Ruddock joined Amanda Brewer and Phill Gray for a conversation on efforts to make responsible gambling more accessible to sports bettors and online casino/poker plays in Canada and the United States. Sports management professor Dr. Michael Naraine from Brock University hopped on the podcast to reiterate the need for independent research on RG in Ontario’s regulated industry.

Ruddock, the man behind the Straight to the Point newsletter, also discussed the challenges operators face with the uniqueness of new regulated markets across the U.S. We also asked him for his thoughts on the first month of ESPN Bet being in business south of the border.

Finally, Brewer and Gray pontificated on the biggest stories on the business of Canadian gambling over the past 12 months.
