A rating is not a licence check
A score such as “9.8/10” has little meaning unless the publisher explains the criteria, weights, evidence and date. A ranking also cannot tell you whether an operator may offer the relevant product in your province.
Look for a clear commercial disclosure
Ask whether the publisher receives money for referrals, deposits or paid placement. A disclosure tells you about an incentive; it does not automatically make the review false or independent.
This edition of CasinoList.ca contains no affiliate links or paid placements. Numerical scores appear only on operators that have completed the published CasinoList.ca review model, with the criteria, weights, scope and evidence limitations disclosed. A score is not a safety percentage or a guarantee of service.
What does “tested” actually mean?
A useful test report identifies what was tested, when, under what conditions and with what limitations. An account opened once cannot establish everyone’s withdrawal experience. A copied game list is not first-hand testing.
Be careful with “safe” and “guaranteed”
Regulation does not remove the risk of losing money or experiencing gambling harm. Statements promising income, guaranteed returns or recovery of past losses should not be treated as reliable advice.
Our approach
Use official provincial sources for authorization checks. Treat user complaints as leads to investigate, not established facts. See our editorial standards for how we distinguish verified information from unresolved claims.
