    Columbia); or (ii) Canada (excluding Quebec); or (iii) the member countries of

    I've heard, but not sure if true or not, that the Netherlands is one of the few countries that officially backs games financially if they are headquartered within their borders? I wonder if Quebec does that? If so, might it be a policy to avoid games headquartered in areas that might potentially have financial political support?

    Its because of the Netherlands' strict gambling laws most likely. Its probably cheaper (definitely easier) to disallow it than to try and comply with our ridiculously convoluted laws.

    Look to your own gambling laws, gaming laws and in some cases pyramid scheme laws. This is why some countries get excluded from special offers.
