At last check (granted, a couple months back), Canadians could not register accounts at Bodog using a Canadian address. I believe this has something to do with Bodog having business interests in Canada. They've announced that they are working on something for the new year that will finally allow us Canucks to register and play at Bodog.

I had sent them an e-mail a few months ago, asking why they wouldn't allow Canadians to sign up. This was their response.

Dear Madam/Sir,

Thank you for contacting Bodog Customer Service. Unfortunately, we do
not accept Canadian customers at this time. We have a
subsidiary in Canada and because of the gray area regarding the legal
implications with respect to Internet wagering, we have
chosen to not accept Canadian customers.
We are working on some minor
corporate restructuring which would allow Canadians to
join Bodog in the future but this may not be introduced until some time
next year. In the mean time, we would be happy to
take your email address down and once we do accept Canadian customers
we will send you an e-mail. We would be happy to
recommend other sportsbooks. Try visiting for other
reputable sportsbooks.

Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to
contact us.

Best Regards,
Customer Service

That's kind of gay. I thought online gambling was only biased toward not letting US people play .

Don't I feel American right now
