The court ordered the civil forfeiture of $62,560 seized from an unlicensed gambling operation.
The Attorney General of Ontario applied under the Civil Remedies Act, 2001, for forfeiture of $64,560 in Canadian currency seized from an unlicensed gambling operation.
An audit revealed the actual amount seized was $62,560 due to a counting error.
The court found the funds were proceeds of unlawful activity, as evidenced by the sophisticated gambling setup, lack of licenses, and absence of credible claims of legitimate ownership.
The application for forfeiture was granted for the corrected amount of $62,560.
Participant and presenter status granted for wind facility appeal, subject to relevance conditions.

The Tribunal granted the requests, subject to the condition that their presentations be relevant to the permissible grounds of appeal and confined to the issues raised in the notice of appeal.
The Tribunal also issued procedural directions and a schedule for the main hearing.
