This subject of this editorial is the Ontario government's proposal to ban advertising on Internet gambling because it is concerned about young people becoming addicted. The author suggests that the ban could not be a true moral crusade again gambling because the government itself has been directly responsible for much of its growth over the past 30 years. He says that the message the Ontario government's ban is really sending is that it does not want any competition from Internet gambling.
