they have an agreement with OLG that lasts far longer than  that

The people the own the convenience stores, gas stations, motels, trucking companies,  do you see people that look like those in horse racing? Those people hold the government hostage.
The budget will look after new Canadians before horse people

well, i am not going to argue how the liberals cater to new canadians, that is well proven and is on display more every year
but that doesnt mean horse racing will suffer, current ontario government supports horse racing

no chance government will dump any more money into horse racing after 5 years
Title: Re: weg
Post by: Brown jug on January 17, 2023, 09:15:46 PM
they are not "dumping" money
the money is allocated from the old slots program, albeit drastically reduced
you know in return for having casinos within the tracks and using their gaming license
 
but i will admit that trying to figure out what governments are going to do especially a left wing snowflake group of liberals is impossible

WEG doesn't receive slot money. That ended years ago.
They rent space to the casino  on property owned by WEG.

correct
in place of the slots money a guaranteed amount of money was allocated to the purses and it goes on for many years

I have been hearing this for 15 years. Yet WEG had their biggest year of betting in 2022.
Sure, the government is going to stop collecting revenue, put thousands of people out of work, and kill and entire industry in their own country.  tmbz1

gee, i guess somebody should tell the breeding farms
 based on this "information" owning stallions and broodmares would be a bad business to be in
of course on the other hand...???

Are you also a lawyer in Canada?
Are they just gonna close the casino doors in order to save on paying rent?
