SAULT STE. MARIE, ON – Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) is pleased to make third quarter (October 1 – December 31) payments totaling $34,104,262 to 29 communities that host gaming facilities.

So far, during OLG’s fiscal year (April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024), these 29 communities have received $117,969,393.

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. 

“OLG continues to provide Municipality Contribution Agreement payments to gaming host communities for vital programs and services that benefit all Ontarians,” said Peter Bethlenfalvy, Minister of Finance.  “Land-based casinos offer good, local jobs and play an important role in supporting strong, vibrant communities for families to live, work and play.”

OLG is proud to share proceeds of casino gaming with local communities, contributing to economic recovery, infrastructure development and job creation.  Payments to host communities are part of OLG’s commitment to Ontario – 100 per cent of OLG’s profits are reinvested in the province.

Since 2017, casino service providers have invested more than $2 billion in private sector capital across the province.  These investments have led to the development and opening of seven new casinos, one planned development and numerous casino expansions and non-gaming amenities.

Since 1994, host communities have received more than $2 billion in non-tax gaming revenue

TORONTO, ON – The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) is giving lottery players a whole new way to win with its innovative $25 INSTANT GOLD PURSUIT ticket.  

INSTANT GOLD PURSUIT combines the excitement of a scratch ticket with a unique twist on a classic lottery draw – the winning numbers have already been drawn and players experience the thrill of the hunt to find a ticket that matches those winning numbers.

There are 50 winning draw tickets to be found in Ontario – each worth $100,000! No need to wait – as soon as the ticket is purchased, you can check to see if it’s a top prize draw winner by using the retailer’s ticket checker or on the OLG app. In addition, there are INSTANT prizes ranging from $25 to $2,500 available to be won.

“OLG is always looking for new ways to reimagine lottery and offer players more exciting chances to bring home the win,” says Nancy Kennedy, OLG’s Chief Lottery and Customer Officer. “And we’re delivering an even bigger win for people across Ontario with 100% of profits from GOLD PURSUIT going back into their communities.”

Every play with OLG is a winning one because all profits are reinvested into Ontario to support key government priorities like health care, the treatment and prevention of problem gambling and support for amateur athletes. As one of the largest non-tax revenue generators for the province, OLG delivered $2.5 billion back to Ontario last year, with the sale of lottery tickets making up almost half of that amount.

For more information about $25 INSTANT GOLD PURSUIT, including winning draw numbers, visit OLG.ca or check the OLG app.
