Council to Vote on Sports Betting Revenue Share

Sarnia city leaders are weighing a new revenue boost tied to sports betting at Gateway Casinos on London Line. At a meeting today, council will vote on a proposal to secure a direct four percent share of all sports betting profits generated at the site, including sportsbook operations and betting kiosks. The change builds on an existing agreement with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation and could bring in new funds for local projects. If approved, city officials will finalize and sign the updated deal.

Crypto Kiosk Scams

Port Huron police say scammers are stealing big money from residents by creating panic over fake bank problems, computer viruses, or family emergencies. Victims lose thousands when they rush to send cash through cryptocurrency kiosks. More than six hundred thousand dollars has been reported lost in the past year alone. To fight back, the city is moving forward with a new law that would limit first-day deposits at these kiosks to one thousand dollars and require warning signs. Check any suspicious demand with a trusted source before acting.
