27-Nov-06. Natives get upper hand, say casinos. National Post, A1.

Alberta’s first native casino, the River Cree Resort and Casino, is located just west of the Edmonton city limits. Competing hospitality operators claim that the province has created a fierce competitor for them because of the advantageous gambling licencing terms of Alberta’s First Nations Gaming Policy. Unlike traditional casinos in the province, most slot money and all table-game income at first nations casinos stays on the reserve.
