Is sports betting legal in Canada?

Yes, sports betting is legal in Canada. The key legislative change came in August 2021 when the federal government passed Bill C-218, which amended the Criminal Code to permit single-event sports wagering.

What are decimal odds and why do Canadian sportsbooks prefer them?

Decimal odds are a numerical representation of how much total money you receive back per dollar wagered, including your original stake. Canadian and European sportsbooks tend to favour decimal odds because the format is intuitive.

What does implied probability mean in sports betting?

Implied probability is the likelihood of an outcome occurring as suggested by the betting odds, after accounting for the bookmaker's built-in margin.

Which deposit methods are most popular at Canadian sportsbooks?

Interac e-Transfer is by far the most popular deposit and withdrawal method at Canadian sportsbooks because it's fast, denominated in Canadian dollars, and supported by virtually every major bank in the country.

What is the bookmaker's vig and how does it affect my bets?

The vig is the bookmaker's built-in profit margin embedded into the odds on every market. The best way to minimise the vig's impact is to shop for the best available odds across multiple licensed Canadian operators.

How do I know if a Canadian sportsbook is trustworthy?

The most reliable indicator of a trustworthy sportsbook is a valid licence from a recognised regulatory body. In Ontario, that means registration with iGaming Ontario and a licence from the AGCO.
