Every hotel we recommend is a place to relax first and gamble second. Wherever you play, keep it entertainment — and know where to find free help in Canada.
Treat gambling as entertainment, not a way to make money. Set a budget and a time limit before you start, and keep them. Never chase losses, and never play with money you can't afford to lose.
Quebec — Jeu: aide et reference offers free, confidential help.
Ontario — ConnexOntario: 1-866-531-2600.
Across Canada — every province keeps a 24/7 support line.
