Ontario reaches deal to end Niagara casino exclusivity rights
Ontario reached an agreement to end MGE Niagara Entertainment’s exclusive rights in the Niagara region, opening the possibility of additional casinos. The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation is expected to launch a tender for potential casino operators later this year. MGE will continue operating Fallsview Casino Resort and Casino Niagara.
The end of exclusivity could create an opportunity for other operators to bid for new Niagara casino projects.
