In This Issue of CEM Amenities: A Surprising Growth Option for Canadian Casinos
In many Canadian jurisdictions, major growth has been limited due to a basic conflict inherent in government-controlled gaming facilities. On the one hand, jurisdictions seek to limit social impacts (or at least want to be perceived as doing so by certain constituencies) by restricting the growth of gaming supply. On the other hand, government wants to increase revenues by expanding supply in response to demand for gaming facilities. Herein lies the biggest challenge for casino operators. Find out what the future of Canadian gaming might hold.

Poll
The Meskwaski Indian Tribe of Iowa plans to allow 18-to-21-year-old gamblers at its Tama Casino Poker tables next month. The only catch is that the youthful players will be barred from its slot machines, Blackjack tables and other games. Do you support this tribe's decision?

Yes, they made the right decision.
Yes, but they should allow 18-to-21-year-olds to play all casino games.
No, they shouldn't allow anyone younger than 21 to play casino games at all.
