This Blog will discuss politics, government, corruption, police, S.I.U., courts, education, min. of attorney general, min. of labour, v.o.i.c.e. and other current and past events of interest to concerned citizens. In the "About me" section to the right and down I have included the names of persons whom I have tremendous respect for. Their influence on me however has been primarily environmental (and personal) and this is therefore a disclaimer that all words posted on this Blog/Website are mine and I alone am responsible for them.

ONTARIO GOVERNMENT LIES TO US AGAIN



The Ontario Lottery & Gaming Corporation has been lying to us all along. It turns out that they will take anybody's money for as long as it lasts. They have advertised that they step in to discourage gambling by problem gamblers. Well not so much it seems. A recent Waterloo Region Record article titled "Ontario casinos could be liable after Hamilton law clerk lost millions" puts things in a different light. This law clwerk stole estate money from her employer lawyer and used it to feed her gambling addiction. Apparently she lost over $3 million in 14 months of clients money and now the clients are suing among others OLG.

The Ontario Court of Appeal has opened the door for the lawsuits to proceed after a lower court had indicated that they could not. It seems that the Court of Appeal are not convinced that these suits are dead in the water afterall. It also appears as if the OLGs claims to protect problem gamblers from themselves are more public relations than reality.
