Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
Sports betting should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment with money you can afford to lose. It is never a reliable way to earn income or solve financial problems. Always bet within your means and remember that the odds are designed in favor of the sportsbook.
Age Verification
Sports betting in Canada is restricted to individuals who are 18 years of age or older (19+ in some provinces). LPInternet.ca requires all users to verify their age before participating in any betting activities. By using this website, you confirm that you are of legal gambling age in your province or territory.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you notice any of the following behaviors in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by betting more money to recover losses
- Hiding or lying about gambling activities and spending
- Neglecting family, work, school, or other important responsibilities
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, utilities)
- Borrowing money or accumulating debt to fund gambling
- Unable to control or stop gambling despite wanting to
- Needing to bet larger amounts to achieve the same level of excitement
- Spending increasing amounts of time on gambling activities
- Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or quit gambling
