Brandon at a glance

Brandon was founded in 1881 when the Canadian Pacific Railway chose the site for its crossing of the Assiniboine River. Brandon University, founded in 1899 as a Baptist college, is one of the city's major institutions. Brandon is nicknamed the Wheat City because of its role as the service and trading centre for south-west Manitoba's grain farms. Canadian Forces Base Shilo, home of the Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery, lies east of Brandon. Brandon takes its name from Brandon House, a Hudson's Bay Company trading post established on the Assiniboine River in the 1790s.

The legal framework, in short

PlayNow.com, run by Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries, is the online casino authorised by the province of Manitoba. Manitoba has no licensing system for private online casinos: PlayNow.com, run in the province by Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries, is the only provincially authorised site, and offshore platforms operate without provincial oversight. Players are not prosecuted for using them, but their recourse in a dispute is limited to the foreign regulator. The minimum gambling age in Manitoba is 18, and sites check it with ID before any withdrawal.
