The British Columbia Gaming Commission (BCGC) joined forces with MGM Resorts, an associate since 2017, to launch a novel responsible wagering project. This endeavor expands upon BetMGM’s efforts during March’s Problem Gambling Awareness Month, in which they partnered with the National Council on Problem Gambling to increase public understanding.
