The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation has issued a third quarter (October 1st, 2021 to December 31st, 2021) non-tax gaming revenue payment of $2,158,545 to the City of Windsor for hosting Caesars Windsor.
Since May 1994, Windsor has received more than $72 million in non-tax gaming revenue.
OLG makes payments to host communities under the Municipality Contribution Agreements, using a prescribed formula consistently applied across all sites in Ontario that is based on a graduated scale of gaming revenue at the hosted site or sites.
“We are happy that host gaming municipalities received payments this past quarter through Municipality Contribution Agreements,” said Peter Bethlenfalvy, Minister of Finance. “Once public safety restrictions are lifted again, land-based casinos will continue to play a vital role in the economic recovery of our communities.”
