8-Jun-06. No more casinos in the cards for Calgary. Calgary Sun, 2.

Alberta Gaming Minister Gordon Graydon said that no further Calgary-area casinos are likely to be approved in the foreseeable future. Graydon noted that Calgary, with six operating casinos and plans for a seventh, is at the casino saturation point for a city of its size. He also said that the $44-million Stampede Casino, which will open in 2008, is not considered a new facility as it will replace the old casino.
