    Is running an online gaming/gambling allowed in Canada??

    Do I need to do any legal paper work to launch an online gaming/gambling website? If there is, what paper work do I need to do?

    Thanks in advance!

    I think if you want to take real money deposits etc and all that like the big poker rooms and casino's then you'll no doubt need a gambling license. Most of the big companies set their servers up in countries like Malta to bypass a lot of things i think.

    I dont know too much about it really but i know it wont be an easy road mate!

    Wish you luck with it
