Email to Windsor Liberal MPI have now personally emailed local Windsor NDP and LIBERAL...
Hello Irek;
As a MP for the constituency of Windsor-Tecumseh you must be a little concerned with the new legislation to legalize sports betting in state of Michigan and the negative impact this will have on employment and revenue for Caesers Casino Windsor.
To my understanding, there is a necessity to change the wording in the criminal code, before parliament can begin process to legalize sports betting here in Canada.
Unfortunately, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s planned visit to Windsor was cancelled, delaying an update on this matter. Local MP Brian Masse (NDP — Windsor-West) expressed hope that our leadership will soon take action on two long-standing local issues the community wants addressed — approval of single-event sports betting being one of them.
Can you shed any light on where the liberal party stands on this matter? And if you see any additional progress being made to legalize sports betting here in Ontario. Are the liberals for or against the move to legalize sports betting in Ontario/Canada?
Sincerely,
Proud Canadian
Michael Ryan Thibodeau
