- gruez 4y ago> It's because we've nationalized gambling[1], and so all gambling/contests need to be approved by the government. What you're describing (the state has a monopoly on gambling) is applicable to many other jurisdictions in US/Canada that aren't excluded from the website.
- Thorrez 4y agoYeah, it doesn't have to do with nationalized gambling. It has to do with strict sweepstakes laws. * Register the sweepstakes rules and all advertisements used to promote the contest with the Quebec government at least 30 days ahead of the sweepstakes' launch. * Pay a fee of up to 10% of the sweepstakes' value, depending on who is allowed to enter. * Offer the sweepstakes rules in French as well as English. https://www.liveabout.com/why-are-so-many-competitions-void-in-quebec-896835 https://www.liveabout.com/why-are-so-many-competitions-void-...
