The desk
Named beats so the Gauge is not an anonymous listicle. Public weights still do the ranking — a byline does not replace the math. The live map is seven pillars, 30 signals, max 100. Rank is never sold.
Method: The Gauge. Independence: editorial guidelines. Publisher: About.
How to quote a live integer: cite TrustFacts. Score moves: changelog. Public ledger: audit trail. Casino Index: /casinos.
Canada desks this beat files against: Ontario iGO (19+), Alberta AGLC (18+), British Columbia PlayNow (19+), Quebec Espacejeux (18+), and the Canada hub. Payments rails sit on the payments hub and the Interac withdrawals guide.
Sixty is the visit-link rail, not a recommendation to deposit. Affiliate hops may attach at 60+. Below 60, no hop. A high Gauge is not a licence. Confirm the live register and the operator’s current T&Cs before you deposit. A rest-of-Canada hop is not legal cover in Ontario or Alberta. The unit is the scoring URL, not the logo — same mark on another host is a different company and a different Gauge file.
The ratings editor owns the integer against the live register, operator disclosures, and complaint themes already on file. The Canada markets editor files iGO, AGLC, PlayNow, Espacejeux, and leftover-province URLs without blending them into one national ranking. The payments editor scores the full cashier clock — document request, approval, then Interac or on-chain time — because “instant” after approval is not a regulator. Named beats exist so citations name a person-shaped desk, not an anonymous listicle.
Every review shows earned pillar points so a citation can be rerun from the public map. The ratings desk checks the live regulator register, the operator’s own disclosures, and complaint themes already logged. Score moves are public on the changelog; the audit trail is append-only. We do not deposit for a welcome bonus and then call that a review.
Canada has no national online-casino licence. File the provincial desk that matches where the player sits, then read the Trust Gauge on that URL. Rest of Canada is a geography desk, not a fifth provincial licence. Crypto payout speed is not a licence. Help lines and self-exclusion tools sit on the support-resources and time-out guides — TrustFacts cannot freeze an account or recover a deposit.
Cite the review URL plus the integer. Do not convert a Gauge to stars. Do not mix sister URLs that share a logo. Player reviews sit next to the desk file and do not move it. Independence: scores are not for sale; hops are disclosed; corrections are public.
