This editorial describes the Alberta government’s latest attempt to deal with problem gambling by providing information centres in two of the province’s casinos. The author questions whether this measure is strong enough to curb gambling abuse. University of Alberta gambling researcher Garry Smith says that there are other technologies being tested which are designed to limit problem gambling. He states that Alberta government officials seem to have a mindset that the province needs to make money from gambling.
