    I guess they found a flaw they didn't like in the contract when they switched over to private ownership from Leisure & Gaming plc.

    There was a bill, in ontario, but it only pertained to banning advertising for offshore casino's and had nothing to do with banning online gambling itself. And when it was introduced, it was met with a fiery of criticism by our nationally syndicated sports talk show host Bob Macowan (our version of Jim Rome for comparison sake). 3 full days of discussing this issue over the national airwaves, both radio and tv. If only one of the US sports broadcasting icons would stand up for you Americans the same way, you might have had a fighting chance. As for canada banning offshore gambling, if it happens it won't be for a while.....it will never happen as long as we have a minority government here so I feel we are definately safe for the next few years. And after a few years the landscape will have changed again anyway and new issues will be at the fore.
