I can think of various pretty simple and cheap things they could do. But how hard are they going to try, given that keeping out problem gamblers lowers their revenue?

Guy has problem gambling, signs up for “please keep me out of your casinos” program. Surely he didn’t just show up, announce himself to security and then strong-arm his way over to the slots where he proceeded to blow a few hundred grand. I have to think he knew he was on a watch-list and as such “might” have taken evasive measures to get in to the driver’s seat. But, on some legal theory that makes mention of some kind of duty(perhaps to protect), this guy has become convinced that the citizens of Ontario are now on the hook for his (and his partners in crime) binges. Nice. I should apply for dual citizenship; it could pay off nicely.
