About the Tobique Gaming Commission
The Tobique Gaming Commission is the gambling regulator of the Tobique First Nation (Neqotkuk), a Wolastoqiyik community in New Brunswick, Canada. It describes its role as overseeing responsible and transparent gaming and supporting economic development for the First Nation. Its legal basis is the Tobique Gaming Act 2023, published on the commission's website alongside a General Code of Practice and anti-money laundering rules.
The Tobique First Nation issued its first iGaming licence in March 2024, a B2B licence for a games supplier. The commission now issues remote gambling licences in two types, B2C for operators that offer games to players and B2B for suppliers. Its register lists each licence holder with its licence type and expiry date.
For players, the main tools are the Tobique Shield seal and the validation page it links to. The seal shows whether a licence is valid, under review or invalid, and the validation page is also where players file formal complaints against an operator and can self-exclude from every TGC-licensed site at once.
To check a licence, open the License Holders page on thetgc.ca and look for the company named in the casino's terms. Then click the seal on the casino's site and make sure it leads to the commission's own validation page rather than a copy.
