About the author
I’m a Canadian-facing gaming compliance consultant with operator-side experience managing marketing at provincial and private brands across the provinces; I’ve handled creative sign-off for campaigns in Ontario, BC and Saskatchewan and run player-consent programs tied to Interac e-Transfer rewards and SIGA-like loyalty setups. If you want a template release or a province-tuned checklist, say which province (e.g., Ontario vs Quebec) and I’ll tailor the doc with local dates (DD/MM/YYYY), CAD figures (C$), and a pre-flight audit list.
