SBC to collaborate with Gaming News Canada on North American sports betting and gaming events
Global events and media firm SBC and Canadian gambling industry media leader Gaming News Canada are announcing a partnership around SBC’s sports betting and iGaming events in the United States and Canada.
Gaming News Canada is the B2B media division of Parleh Media Group, covering the sports betting and gaming industry through its newsletter and the Gaming News Canada Show podcast. The partnership comes ahead of the 2023 edition of the SBC Summit North America (New Jersey, May 9-11) and the 2023 edition of the Canadian Gaming Summit (Toronto, June 13-15), which will be, for the first time, proudly produced by SBC in collaboration with the Canadian Gaming Association.
In advance of the Canadian federal government amending the country’s criminal code to legalize single-event sports betting, Parleh Media Group launched a twice-weekly newsletter in February 2021. The Gaming News Canada newsletter has become a must-read for executives, marketing and communications leaders, and media who are participants in the fast-growing gaming industry across North America. Gaming News Canada’s weekly podcast features experts from across the industry addressing the latest news and trends.
“I recognized a year ago when I attended the SBC North America Summit in Secaucus (NJ) the important role that SBC has in the industry from its conferences and webinars to industry awards and to the outstanding work its editorial team performs in covering sports betting and iGaming,” said Steve McAllister, Editor-in-Chief, Gaming News Canada.
“Today’s announcement not only aligns Parleh Media Group with one of the best-known events and media companies in the industry but will provide us with access to leaders across the business and opportunities for our team by moderating and lending the expertise of our people to panels at both the North American and Canadian summits,” McAllister added.
Added Mark Silver, founder and CEO of Parleh Media Group: “When we learned back in March that SBC would be organizing the Canadian Gaming Summit in 2023 and beyond, we recognized the importance of working together with Bob McFarland, Sue Schneider, Cristian Robalino and the rest of the SBC team. As a winner of the inaugural SBC First Pitch competition a year ago, we saw then the influence SBC has in opening the door for bringing together the decision-makers across the industry.
“We’re thrilled to be a partner with SBC for its North America Summit, and for its new role staging the Canadian Gaming Summit. We look forward to supporting both SBC and the Canadian Gaming Association in staging a conference in Toronto this June that informs and educates attendees about a dynamic industry that cuts across many sectors in Canada.”
Cristian Robalino, VP of Marketing, Americas, at SBC, said: “We are excited to welcome Parleh Media Group as a media partner ahead of our 2023 events focused on the North American region. We have been following the Parleh’s growth throughout the past years and are truly impressed with their efforts to connect with sports fans in a meaningful, interactive way by using new, entertaining formats.”

Tonybet player in Canada claims $20,000 CAD golden World Cup card prize
Tonybet says a player in Laurier-Station, Canada has claimed the “golden card” prize worth $20,000 CAD in the operator’s World Cup Card Collection. The announcement was made Tuesday 21st July 2026.
The World Cup collection featured 51 cards in total, including 48 digital cards representing participating World Cup nations, plus three unique prize cards in bronze, silver and gold. Tonybet said the bronze card—available during the group stage—was previously found by a customer in Saint-Colomban, Canada, while the silver card—available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals—was won by a player in County Kildare, Ireland.
The golden card became available for the semi-final, third-place play-off and final, and has now been claimed, Tonybet said.
Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “You can plan a campaign down to the last detail, but you can’t plan what the World Cup brings.
“We designed the collection to evolve with the tournament, and every knockout round created new stories we couldn’t have predicted. Seeing players complete their collections and discovering who would uncover each prize was the most rewarding part of the campaign.
“I hope everyone enjoyed the experience for what it was meant to be: a fun addition to the tournament, played responsibly and always within their limits.”
Tonybet said the collection will remain open until 31 July for players who are still completing sets and spending coins, although all grand prizes have been awarded.

Greentube has gone live in Alberta on the day the province opened as a newly regulated iGaming market, marking the supplier’s first launch in the jurisdiction.

The Alberta launch builds on Greentube’s existing Canadian footprint. The company has been live in Ontario since 2022 and described the Alberta debut as part of its wider North American expansion strategy.
Greentube said Alberta players will initially have access to a curated set of titles including Piggy Prizes
Wand of Riches 2
, Rumble Riches
Haulin’ Gold
and Firecracker Frenzy
Money Toad
, as well as Silver Lux Big Win Spinner, Starlight Jackpots
Captain’s Catch
and Charming Lady’s Boom
.
David Bolas, Commercial Director at Greentube, said: “Going live in Alberta on the day the market opens is an important step for Greentube and reflects the strong momentum we are seeing in Canada.
“We welcome the opportunity a new jurisdiction offers and look forward to working with locally licensed operators to introduce our established offering to players in Alberta. With a balanced line-up of new releases and proven performers, we are well placed to offer a compelling experience in the province and support our long-term ambitions in the region.”
