Is 888poker legal in Ontario?
Ontario runs its own regulated online gambling market through iGaming Ontario, supervised by the AGCO, and it is ring-fenced: Ontario players sit in a separate pool from the rest of Canada and from international sites. Only operators registered with the AGCO may offer real-money poker here, and 888poker.ca is the Ontario site. This is general information, not legal advice. 888poker publishes the list of countries it serves and Ontario is on it; where a local licence is required, it operates under that licence. The minimum age to play is 19. This is general information, not legal advice.
