Terms and Conditions – speakingmytruth.ca

These terms and conditions govern your use of speakingmytruth.ca (the "Site"). By accessing any page on this Site, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by the terms set out below. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Who We Are and What This Site Does

speakingmytruth.ca is an independent comparison and review website that researches and evaluates online casinos available to players in Canada. Our editorial team — led by Danielle Murray — assesses casino brands against a defined set of criteria and presents findings to help readers make informed decisions about where to play.

We do not operate a casino, accept deposits, process payments or offer gambling services of any kind. We are a publishing site only.

Commercial Relationships and Affiliate Disclosure

Some of the casino brands featured on this Site have a commercial relationship with us. When you follow a link to a casino from speakingmytruth.ca and subsequently register or deposit, we may receive a commission or referral fee from that casino. This is how we fund the Site's operation at no cost to you.

However, commercial relationships do not determine editorial rankings. Our ratings and rankings are based solely on the editorial criteria described below and on our casino reviews page. A casino that pays us a higher commission does not receive a higher ranking as a result. Brands that do not have an affiliate arrangement with us may still be reviewed and ranked if they are relevant to our readers.

Where an offer or ranking on this Site has been influenced by a commercial arrangement, we take reasonable steps to make that clear. You should always review a casino's own terms and conditions before registering or depositing.

Editorial Independence and How We Rank Casinos

Our reviews are based on desk research and publicly available information. We do not claim to have deposited, played, withdrawn or otherwise tested any casino product first-hand. Where we describe a process, we do so on the basis of published information, verified as of the fact-check date shown on each page.

Factors we consider when assessing and ranking a casino include, but are not limited to:

Licensing status and the regulatory framework under which the casino operates
Welcome bonus value, structure and the fairness of attached wagering requirements
Range and quality of games, including slots, table games and live-dealer options
Availability and speed of payment methods relevant to Canadian players
Mobile compatibility and ease of account management
Responsiveness and availability of customer support
Responsible gambling tools and player protection measures

Editorial ratings are our own assessments — they are not customer review scores, aggregated user ratings or third-party certifications. They should be read as one input to your decision, not as a guarantee of any outcome.

Accuracy of Information

We make reasonable efforts to keep the information on this Site accurate and up to date. Each page carries a fact-check date indicating when the content was last verified. Casino offers, terms, game libraries, payment methods and regulatory conditions can change without notice, and we cannot guarantee that every detail is current at the moment you read it.

Before registering at any casino, you should:

Visit the casino's own website and read its current terms and conditions in full.
Confirm that the welcome offer or promotion shown on our Site is still active and available to players in your province.
Check eligibility requirements, including minimum deposit amounts, wagering requirements, game restrictions and expiry dates, directly with the operator.
Satisfy yourself that the casino holds a licence or operates under a regulatory framework you are comfortable with.

speakingmytruth.ca accepts no liability for decisions made in reliance on information published here, or for losses arising from use of any casino featured on the Site.

Welcome Bonus Terms — What to Check

Many pages on this Site highlight welcome bonus offers. These are promotional incentives offered by the casino, not by us. Material conditions vary between casinos and can include:

Minimum deposit: A minimum first deposit is usually required to trigger the bonus.
Wagering requirements: Most bonuses must be wagered a set number of times before any winnings can be withdrawn. Requirements vary widely — compare this figure carefully.
Game restrictions: Free spins are typically valid on specific slots only. Some games may contribute less than 100% toward wagering requirements, or not at all.
Time limits: Bonuses and free spins often expire within a set number of days.
Maximum win caps: Some bonuses limit how much you can withdraw from bonus winnings.
Eligibility: Bonuses may be unavailable to players in certain provinces or may exclude players who have previously held an account with the same operator.

We place material conditions beside the offers they qualify wherever information is available to us. Where a condition is not listed on our Site, that does not mean it does not apply — always check with the casino directly. For a broader explanation of how bonus structures work, see our full casino reviews.

Eligibility — Who May Use This Site

This Site is intended for adults of legal gambling age in their jurisdiction. In most Canadian provinces, the legal age to gamble is 19, with the exception of Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec, where it is 18. It is your responsibility to confirm the legal gambling age in your province before registering at any casino.

The information on this Site is directed at residents of Canada. We make no representation that any casino listed here is suitable for, or legally accessible to, players outside Canada. If you access this Site from another country, you do so at your own risk and on the basis of local laws.

If you have concerns about your relationship with gambling, we encourage you to visit our responsible gambling page before continuing.

Responsible Gambling

Gambling is a form of entertainment and should never be treated as a way to generate income or to recover financial losses. The casinos featured on this Site carry risk, and outcomes are determined by chance. speakingmytruth.ca does not endorse gambling as a financial strategy and does not imply that any casino or offer carries a guaranteed return.

If gambling is causing you or someone you know harm, free and confidential support is available. Our responsible gambling page includes links to recognised support organisations in Canada.
