Ontario’s Alcohol and Gaming Commission (AGCO) says it took over horse racing regulatory responsibilities from the Ontario Racing Commission in 2015 under legislation integrating racing into the province’s gaming strategy. The AGCO says oversight continues through an integrated regulatory model intended to protect horse welfare, participant safety and the public interest.
