AGLC launching PlayAlberta.ca to offer Albertans expanded entertainment options
October 1, 2020, marked the launch of PlayAlberta.ca, the regulated, online gambling website available to Albertans over the age of 18 and physically located within the province’s borders. An impressive platform of virtual slots and table games will be available at launch, with more features being added in the coming months.
In addition to popular land-based and online titles, PlayAlberta.ca integrates AGLC’s best-in-class GameSense responsible gambling program, which promotes healthy gambling behaviour with access to tools and resources via GameSense.
“PLAYALBERTA.CA IS ANOTHER WAY AGLC IS DELIVERING A RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING CHOICE FOR THE BENEFITS OF ALBERTANS. THE PROVINCE’S REGULATED ONLINE GAMBLING WEBSITE WILL OFFER PLAYERS EXPANDED ENTERTAINMENT OPTIONS WITH INTEGRATED RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING FEATURES AND GENERATE REVENUE TO SUPPORT VALUABLE PROGRAMS AND SERVICES ALBERTANS RELY ON EVERY DAY.” – ALAIN MAISONNEUVE, PRESIDENT & CEO, AGLC.
Available on browsers through desktop, tablet and smart phones, PlayAlberta.ca will provide a secure, aged-controlled environment. At signup, Albertans will be required to verify their identity before having access to the platform’s features.
To support the relationship with existing venues, AGLC has established an online gambling advisory committee consisting of representatives from Alberta’s gaming industry. This will ensure that Play Alberta compliments Alberta’s land-based venues while allowing online players to have access to a legal and secure website.
In June 2020, AGLC announced NeoPollard Interactive as the successful proponent for building Alberta’s online gambling platform. PlayAlberta.ca makes certain that money played in Alberta will stay in Alberta, ensures protection on account withdrawals and offers a suite of responsible gambling features, such as bet and time limits.

Rivalry Corp. Announces Significant Reduction in Operations and Evaluation of Strategic Alternatives
Rivalry Corp. announced that its Board of Directors has approved a significant reduction in operating activity as the Company evaluates strategic alternatives in respect of its assets and operations.
The Company is engaged in discussions with third parties regarding potential transactions. However, in light of recent performance volatility, the Board has determined to materially reduce the scale of operations while assessing whether a strategic transaction or other alternative can be advanced.
Effective immediately, the Company is implementing substantial cost reductions, including a significant workforce reduction and reduced operating expenditures. The Company has paused player activity on its platform and is facilitating player withdrawals in the ordinary course.
The Company is assessing a range of potential alternatives, which may include asset-level transactions, corporate transactions, restructuring initiatives or other strategic outcomes.
Given the Company’s reduced operating scale and the ongoing evaluation process, there can be no assurance that any strategic alternative will be completed or that operations will continue in their current form.
