They need to have a discussion on Gambling in Ontario, it seems very predatorial.

From entertainment for kids to adult entertainment; some gambling organization is pushing it. The other day my guy told me he made 15k one night and lost it all in a few hours later.

He usually keeps his bets low under $5 and just builds up from the that, from what he told me. He won't admit he loses more than he wins and makes excuses that he knows how to game the system.

It's his life.

If this is tow truck related...

I've been saying for years, even here that the Tow industry and new mafia are on some next level shyt. Toronto is basically ground zero for Italian now.
Italians run the tow industry?

Yes.
They run tow, construction, etc.

The corruption might be more apparent in MTL where they have wars between the bikers, Haitians, and Mob, but these guys run almost everything here.

Think about the level of sophistication crime has taken over the last 10 years. The huge amounts of break ins, cars getting shipped over seas. This is a huge industry.

I wouldn't be surprised, and honestly believe Doug Ford gets a cut from all of this.

When the government controls something then they dot care.

Before weed and gambling were vices and bad now that they get their cut it's all good and dandy.

off topic, but I went to TOOP a couple weeks ago and realized how bad it actually is.

Are all lounges in the city like this? Are there any out here where people actually mingle?
