Linda introduced Chuck from Great Canadian Gaming who gave a fascinating synopsis on gaming in BC as specifically related to their casinos which included Riverrock. Chuck also addressed how the whole "laundering" of money is not exactly as perceived through the media. Gaming supports 5100 community based charities so our Rotary is going to again submit requests for money to support Sassy!
