Making Sure Gambling Remains a Game
An industry leader in the area of responsible gaming, since its inception, the Société des loteries vidéo du Québec (SLVQ) has been recognized for its implementation of numerous concrete measures and initiatives aimed at promoting healthy and appropriate gaming behaviour. In 2003, for example, major changes were made to the terminals, and a new generation of units has since been put into place incorporating several responsible gaming mechanisms.
