Bill S-211 proposes national controls on Canadian sports betting advertising
Canada’s Bill S-211, which would establish a national framework for controls on gambling advertising, remains before the Senate after passing second reading in June. Senator Marty Deacon said she hopes it will reach committee in early October; the Canadian Gaming Association argued that further restrictions should rely on evidence-based research.
The bill could establish national rules affecting the volume, dissemination and content of gambling advertising in Canada.
