After a long wait, Cascade Casino North Bay finally opened its doors for customers this week. But the North Bay Parry Sound Regional Health Department and the Niping Regional Counseling Center have teamed up to remind locals of the potential risks posed by gambling in a new joint campaign called ‘Do you think you’ll win?’
The two groups reminded local residents that compulsive gambling disorders should not be underestimated and that more people should be educated on how to gamble for fun. Such harmful habits can affect not only those who experience them, but also their family friends, and even co-workers. The risk of such problems also increases as the accessibility of such offerings increases.
Justin Mala, a community health promotion organization for the North Bay Ferry Sound Health Unit, shared that the main purpose of the ‘Think You’ll Win?’ campaign is to educate locals about the possibility of gambling. According to a recent study, misunderstandings and misconceptions about gambling are quite common. She also reminded me that the chances of winning big games are lower than I thought.
The health promoter also added that the campaign has been developed for several years. But with the start of Cascade Casino North Bay and the rise of online gaming in Ontario, it is important to educate gamblers. According to her, early big winners have a higher risk of problematic gambling because they expect more.
Malah also said gamblers should not forget that the purpose of gambling houses is to make money. In other words, in the long run, sponsors are more likely to lose than win. On the other hand, Alan Macquarie, executive director of the Community Counseling Center in Nipissing, pointed out that gamblers are often ashamed of their damaging habits and try to keep them a secret.
Mr. Macquarie added that this secrecy leads to shame and even more individuals trying to play and get their money back, making their debts bigger. According to him, shame is a big factor in the problem and sometimes prevents people from asking for help. He also said young men, the elderly, indigenous people, and those who recently experienced losses were more likely to fall into the ‘high-risk problem gambling’ category.
In November 2021, Credit Canada pointed out that more and more people are suffering from compulsive gambling after the unprecedented situation began. The group’s counselors are criticizing online gambling as more people seek Credit Canada’s advice. This is due to increased access to these services on all kinds of mobile devices.
In southern Ontario, New York, local groups such as the New York Problem Gambling Commission joined this year’s Problem Gambling Awareness Month. The plan is held every March, and the committee now informs us that Niagara Falls and Seneca One buildings in downtown Buffalo have also joined. Both landmarks were lit yellow to show support.
