The OLG wants to make sure it gets the modernization of gaming in Ontario right.

A Canadian company was awarded the East Bundle last week, and spokesperson Tony Bitonti says because it’s a 20 year agreement they’ll be using it as the model for the remaining bundles, including the northern bundle, which Sudbury is a part of.

He says the request for proposal, which is the final phase in choosing the operator, will be issued in the coming months.

Bitonti says the process is very competitive and they’ll be issuing that RFP for three to five proponents for the northern bundle.

In past proposals, the City has expressed interest in a casino with an attached multi-functional facility, like an arena or convention center.
