Safer gambling
Gambling should stay enjoyable
Gambling can be addictive. In Ontario it is for adults (19+) and should only ever be money you can afford to lose. If it stops being fun, take a break.

- Time-outs and cooling-off periods
- Reality checks during play
- Self-exclusion
Warning signs
- Spending more time or money than you intended
- Chasing losses, or gambling to escape stress
