Off-Track Betting Bill Introduced in Commons

Justice Minister Otto Lang introduced permissive off-track betting legislation in the House of Commons. It lets provinces decide whether to allow such betting and controls fees, revenue shares, and locations. It covers in‑province bets on other provinces races but not international events or other sports. The measure aims to bring order to a long running uncertain issue.
