Abstract

The British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC) and the Gaming Policy and Enforcement Branch (GPEB) have asked the RGC Centre for the Advancement of Best Practices to conduct a review of the Voluntary Self-Exclusion (VSE)Program. The VSE Program in British Columbia was implemented in early 1999, shortly after BCLC took over the management of casinos. Since that time, the Program has undergone a number of notable changes. Today, VSE is available at all gaming facilities with slot machines including casinos, community gaming centres and the slot floor of racetracks. It is also available at all facilities offering bingo and the online gaming site “playnow.com”. For the purpose of this review, the RGC focused on casino-based VSE and selected five casinos from the 17 casinos in the province of British Columbia that represented a range of location, size and operator.

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
