This article discusses the possibility of a First Nations urban reserve being established in the City of Lethbridge. University of Lethbridge Native American Studies assistant professor Yale Belanger notes that, technically, a First Nation could apply to have a casino on an urban reserve. There are four casinos on urban reserves in Saskatchewan but Belanger doubts that an application would be approved in Lethbridge as the city already has a casino and the Blood Reserve does not appear interested for cultural reasons.
