FP/CP say Great Canadian B.C. issues roost in Ontario

The Financial Post reports in its Tuesday edition that Ontario's opposition is calling on the government to halt a deal with a gaming company that runs a British Columbia casino alleged to have accepted millions that could be proceeds of crime. A Canadian Press dispatch to the Post reports that the B.C. government has launched an independent expert's review of policies in the gambling industry after concerns were raised about the possibility of money-laundering at the River Rock Casino in Richmond, B.C. That casino is run by Great Canadian Gaming, which the Ontario Lottery and Gaming selected in August -- along with Brookfield Business Partners LP -- to run facilities at Woodbine, slots at Ajax Downs and the Great Blue Heron Casino in the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation. Ontario Progressive Conservative Vic Fedeli said Monday the province should halt the deal while it gathers all the facts about the situation in B.C. He said: "I think our main impetus is to ensure integrity in the industry. We're asking them -- halt right now while we gather the facts. I think that's the prudent thing to be doing." Premier Kathleen Wynne said OLG has strict anti-money-laundering provisions, but Ontario is watching developments in B.C.
