As part of Ontario Racing’s long term funding industry consultations, we heard from industry participants that increased transparency and information disclosure was important and needed.
In response to industry requests,
Ontario Racing has worked with our partners at Ontario Lottery and Gaming (OLG) and the provincial government to release the nonbinding legal document which underpins the proposed long term funding agreement for horseracing in Ontario.
This Letter of Intent (LOI) will be released publicly on Friday February 10, 2017, and an overview of this document will be provided via a webinar at 2 pm. Ontario Racing will facilitate this conversation, and legal counsel from OLG and the Woodbine Entertainment Group (WEG) will be on hand to provide a detailed explanation of this agreement to interested industry participants.
You can register for the webinar
here. We look forward to your participation.
