In 2009 the PEI government started preliminary research into building an online gaming regulatory hub on the island that would bring in millions of dollars a year. A few community members and government officials started meeting to bring the project to life.
How those meetings turned into a scandal that is still evolving 15 years later is complicated; far more complicated than you might expect. It’s a story of potential cover ups, insider trading and conflicts of interest, and most of all secrets. Secrets that make it hard to truly understand how and why it all played out.
In this episode we get to the bottom of PEI’s e-gaming scandal.
