Labour Market Impact in Canada
It’s a well-known fact that casinos create employment opportunities and generate tax revenue, while also serving as an economic stimulus for local communities. This is what we refer to as a ripple effect. Many of the products found at casinos require other businesses to design, manufacture and deliver them, thus spreading around the economic benefits of gaming. In 2017, Canadian gaming facilities spent $4.1 billion on the direct purchase of goods and services to sustain operations.
