Charitable Gaming Bulletin

December 9, 2025

This bulletin is to advise all licensed charities and charity workers of IMPORTANT AMENDMENTS to the Charitable Gaming Policies Handbook (CGPH). The following policies are effective December 9, 2025.

AGLC is committed to reviewing policies to meet the needs of charitable organizations, while maintaining an effective regulatory environment. As a result, policy amendments have been made to Sections 3.2, 4.3 and 4.4 of the CGPH:

  • Subsections 3.2.1, 4.3.5 and 4.4.10 have been amended to include policy that allows for gaming proceeds to be used for long-term housing for veterans or seniors requiring housing support.

The amended CGPH may be accessed online. Additional information regarding AGLC’s commitment to a modern regulatory environment that supports consumer choice, innovation and economic growth can be found on AGLC’s website at aglc.ca/modernization.

Please familiarize yourself with the amended policies, update your Charitable Gaming Policies Handbook as required, and ensure all affected staff are notified of the new requirements.
