Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At moosejawcobracheer.ca, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Sports betting and online gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only—never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
Sports betting in Canada is only available to individuals who are:
- 18 years of age or older in most provinces (Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and Saskatchewan)
- 19 years of age or older in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, and Yukon
It is your responsibility to comply with local age requirements. We do not knowingly permit underage gambling.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Please be aware of these common warning signs that may indicate a gambling problem:
- Spending more money or time gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling with more money to recover what you've lost
- Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Neglecting work, school, family, or social obligations due to gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Lying to loved ones about gambling habits or losses
- Experiencing relationship or financial problems because of gambling
If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please reach out for support immediately.
