The paperwork side, filed in plain language.

communitysfdw.com reads Canadian online-gambling rules the way a clerk reads them: which body actually regulates what, how winnings are treated at tax time, what a payment provider can and cannot do with a deposit, and where the player-protection tools sit inside all of it. No ratings, no “best casino” lists, no invented payout numbers — just the administrative record, written so it can be read without a law degree.

Québec is the frame of reference here, and it works differently from the rest of the country: the province does not run an open licensing market. Loto-Québec operates the single provincial online platform, Espacejeux, launched in December 2010, and the Régie des alcools, des courses et des jeux (RACJ) is the regulator overseeing it. Where a filing applies Canada-wide rather than to Québec alone, it says so.
