The developer of the ambitious project, Ontario Gaming GTA (OGGTA), says that the gambling and entertainment complex would be beneficial to the community and the city budget. The company is a partnership between Great Canadian Gaming Corporation and Brookfield Business Partners LP, and in August 2017, the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) announced that it had selected it for the news service provider of the GTA Gaming Bundle. As part of this bundle, the company agreed to be responsible for the expanded gaming operations at Woodbine Racetrack. Currently, the venue has a Slots Parlour, called Woodbine Casino, which hosts more than 2,500 slot machines and dozens of virtual table games and virtual poker games.
