The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation had made a fourth quarter (January 1st to March 31st) payment totaling $1,010,143 to the City of Windsor for hosting Caesars Windsor.

For fiscal 2021-22, Windsor has received $4,921,214 in gaming revenue.

These payments to host communities are based on a formula consistently applied across all gaming sites in Ontario using a graduated scale of gaming revenue at the hosted site.

“Municipality Contribution Agreements are an important source of funding for municipalities, and help deliver critical services that the people of Ontario enjoy,” said Peter Bethlenfalvy, Minister of Finance. “Land-based casinos create good, local jobs and play an important role in supporting in our economy, and the government will always support a strong and vibrant gaming sector in Ontario.”

Since the gaming site opened in May 1994, Windsor has received $73,014,912.
