Tansi, Edlanete, Anin, Toked ya un, Hello, Bonjour! Welcome to the Indigenous Gaming Regulators Website IGR is headquartered in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on the Asimakaniseekan Askiy Reserve which is part of Muskeg Lake Cree Nation. Our office is located directly across from the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations (FSIN) of which IGR is an institution. The primary goal of IGR is to license and regulate the on-reserve charitable gaming activities of those First Nations that have designated IGR as their regulator. With the permission of the Chiefs and Councils of these First Nations we have the task of helping their charities run successful bingos, breakopens and raffles while complying with the legal obligations of running a charitable gaming operation. IGR also works within the community to bring awareness about the legal responsibilities of charitable gaming operations. By hosting Charitable Gaming Workshops on First Nations that have designated IGR as their regulator, we are working to inform people about the requirements of running a Bingo, Breakopen, Texas Hold'em, Monte Carlo or Raffle fundraising event and what parts of the Criminal Code of Canada apply to them. IGR will also be working with the Saskatchewan Indian Gaming Authority (SIGA) as a regulator of all table game activities within the 5 casinos across the province. IGR's goal is to work with First Nations communities and their on-reserve charitable and religious organizations. IGR will help to ensure the continued success of licensed charitable gaming so that the proceeds raised continue to reach those charitable or religious organizations and their purposes.
