The fourth quarter ran from Jan. 1 to March 31. Peterborough has received $17,746,336 since the Shorelines opened in October 2018.

During OLG’s fiscal year of April 1, 2025, to March 31, 2026, Peterborough has received $2,651,125.

These payments to host communities are based on a formula consistently applied across all gaming sites in Ontario using a graduated scale of gaming revenue at the hosted site as stated in a press release. 

“OLG shares revenues with host gaming municipalities to help them invest in local priorities, including community services and infrastructure,” said Dave Smith, Peterborough-Kawartha MPP. “These payments generated at Shorelines Casino Peterborough are part of our government’s commitment to support municipalities and to protect what matters most – those critical services families rely on.”
