Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC) is improving access to its Self-Exclusion Program. As of January 10, patrons who wish to enroll or renew their agreements within AGLC’s Self-Exclusion Program can do so through a virtual process instead of the previous requirement of going through an in-venue gaming facility or AGLC office.

AGLC’s Self-Exclusion Program can be an important first step in helping people gain control of their gambling behaviors. Players can exclude themselves from casinos, racing entertainment centers, and PlayAlberta.ca for a period between six months up to three years.

“AGLC is pleased to be one of the few jurisdictions in North America to now be offering virtual sign-ups for our Self-Exclusion Program. Allowing players to sign-up online creates greater access to AGLC’s social responsibility tools and resources while supporting patrons that wish to control their gambling should they need to stay away from physical venues,” Kandice Machado, President and CEO of AGLC, said.

To complete the virtual sign-up process, patrons will need to have a valid, government issued identification, email address, and phone number. The process will continue through virtual meetings with AGLC’s Self-Exclusion administration team members.

Evolution has announced that AGLC (Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis) has gone live with Evolution’s Live Casino services.

AGLC is live with an initial six live dealer games from Evolution, including Roulette, Infinite Blackjack, Baccarat and Ultimate Texas Hold’em. There are plans for further Evolution live games to be added in the months ahead.

The Evolution live games are available to play on AGLC’s PlayAlberta.ca website, the regulated, online gambling website available to Albertans over the age of 18 and physically located within the province’s borders. The games will be available on desktop, tablet and smartphone.

AGLC is the Government of Alberta’s Crown commercial enterprise and agency that oversees the gaming, liquor and cannabis industries in Alberta. By enjoying responsible gaming, players ensure that money played in Alberta stays in Alberta. All revenue generated through Play Alberta goes directly back into the Government of Alberta’s General Revenue Fund to support valued programmes and services that Albertans rely on every day. In 2019–20, more than $1.4 billion in net gaming income was generated for that fund by AGLC.

Jeff Millar, Commercial Director at Evolution, added: “The launch of AGLC is another proud moment for Evolution in the roll-out of our services in Canada. We are committed to delivering enhanced online gaming choice and entertainment for Albertans in the most exciting way possible with our world-leading games portfolio.”

AGLC is the third Government-run Canadian lottery to go live with Evolution’s games portfolio following the successful launches of live gaming for BCLC (British Columbia Lottery Corporation) and Loto-Quebec.
