Every province in Canada has its own set of rules regarding online gambling. Casinos, on the other hand, are generally legal. Canadian online casinos must be licenced by the appropriate authorities. Except for Saskatchewan, every province has at least one online gambling site. In practise, Manitoba, British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec can issue licences. Online gambling sites can only operate on a local level without special licences. Before games can be played across provincial lines, a special agreement must be reached. Offshore operators do not require licences to operate within the country. Penalties apply only to land-based casinos. Canadians can participate in offshore online casinos. However, such casinos are prohibited from specifically targeting Canadian players. Gambling has a long history in Canada that predates the arrival of European settlers. On the Pacific Northwest Coast, indigenous peoples played a game called Slahal with sticks and bones. The game is said to have originated before the Ice Age. The game has far more social, spiritual, and community significance than it does as a recreational activity. Because dice games were illegal under British common law, European settlers looked down on gambling. In today's world, Canada has fully embraced gambling. Online gambling has become a popular pastime in Canada as a result of technological advancements that specifically target Canadian players. The market is divided into two categories: mobile devices (phones and tablets) and desktop computers. The desktop segment has the largest market share in Canada's online gambling market. Mobile devices are expected to gain the largest market share for online gambling in Canada during the forecast period. Mobile devices provide convenience that other devices do not. Players can access their preferred online gambling sites at any time and from any location, removing the need for a computer or a physical location. Because mobile devices are easier to transport and use while on the go, they are more accessible than computers. As a result, mobile devices have become the preferred choice for many Canadian online gamblers.
