The Canadian Gaming Association (CGA) and the Global Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) have partnered to fight game manipulation and safeguard the honesty of sports wagering in Canada. This alliance is especially crucial as Canada broadens its sports betting sector, including the imminent debut of Ontario’s online gaming market. The IBIA, a world-renowned authority in overseeing wagering actions, will collaborate closely with the CGA to detect and probe questionable betting trends. This joint effort will utilize the IBIA’s vast scope and knowledge, encompassing a substantial $137 billion in worldwide betting dealings each year. The collaboration highlights the dedication of both groups to guarantee an equitable and open sports betting atmosphere for both providers and customers.
The program seeks to safeguard the honesty of athletic competition and the privileges of players. It will direct consumers toward lawful wagering services and assist in combating illicit practices in cooperation with other groups.
The chief executive of the International Betting Integrity Association, Khalid Ali, stressed the significance of a reliable wagering sector in Ontario and Canada overall for the organization and its affiliates. He conveyed their dedication to collaborating with essential stakeholders on wagering and probity matters and sees the Canadian Gaming Association as a vital collaborator in realizing this objective.
Ali further recognized the Canadian Gaming Association’s contribution to furthering legal wagering in Canada and considers them a valuable partner in promoting the industry’s advancement while prioritizing sportsmanship and ethical betting practices.
