Those who watch these things, like Connie Woodcock of the Toronto Sun, say the appeal of a casino in Toronto will be just too great for the cash-strapped Ontario government to resist. In a column today Woodcock says that “two perfect casino sites” are Woodbine Racetrack and Ontario Place.” As we know there is already slot machine gambling at Woodbine and Ontario Place has just been shut down for five years to figure what to do with it. Woodcock asks with some anguish, it seems, whether we’re ready for an adults-only entertainment centre at Ontario Place. But many will say the worst effect of all-out gambling is the incentive that it will give the government to spend even more crazily. It’s a frequent theme here that a stable economy and prosperity lie in better management of our money. Or, we could be like Greece. Connie Woodcock’s column linked off the headline above.
