Concerning the question about card playing ie: poker. Yes it is legal. Poker is a game of "skill" whereas bingo is a game of "chance" - both terms defined by law. One can host a poker game but all proceeds must, in turn, be paid back out to the winners. There is no "paid host" allowance, no rent for the building, etc. No way to "make money" just by hosting a game.

BINGO - i was told, by a police officer, that i cannot carry inside a BINGO hall ? I see nothing in the law about that particular establishment. And the owner WILL NOT post signs. CHL's are welcome as far as the owner is concerned.
