Casinos in Canada were made legal nearly 30 years ago, with the very first one one opening its doors in Manitoba.

Canadian casinos afford a number of games; including poker, blackjack, roulette, baccarat, craps, and video slots. The requirements to play in a Canadian casino include confirming with a valid birth certificate as well as picture identification that you are 19 or older.
