Hey, I am also from Canada. I don’t have an answer for you, but would like to hear one.
I was under the assumption that doing this was not illegal. I am currently taking Criminology in university and when I am done I want to be a police officer, so if this is in anyway illegal then I will have stop. I was taking a look through my criminal code and took a look at the articles in your post but it doesn’t specifically mention anything about casino affiliate programs and, atleast not that I noticed. I believe in one of the articles it said something about advertising, so I guess that would fall into what we are doing.
So if anyone has an answer to this it would be great to hear it!
Thanks.
