Where help is

  1. ConnexOntario gives free, confidential help 24/7. Phone 1-866-531-2600, chat through connexontario.ca, or text CONNEX to 247247.
  2. Under OLG's My PlayBreak, a person picks a term of 1 to 5 years, or just 3 or 6 months, away from Ontario casinos. To enrol, phone 1-800-387-0098 (the OLG Support Centre), ask the casino staff, or drop by a PlaySmart Centre.
  3. Through betguard.ca, BetGuard lets a person self-exclude from every Ontario site for regulated online gambling, OLG.ca included. Its scope excludes land-based casinos, and a term can be set freely or fixed at 1 year, 6 months or 5 years.
  4. PlaySmart, at playsmart.ca, is OLG's responsible gambling site.

A limit set before the drive

The slots at Kawartha Downs are open daily, year round, from 10:00 a.m. to midnight. Midnight gives any visit a fixed end. How much to spend is a different reading, and no clock sets it.

That amount is the reader's own decision, made at home before the drive to 1382 County Road 28. A limit describes spending, not winning. Once the sum is spent, the visit is over, whatever the hour.

The Field Readings desk

The Field Readings desk signs each page of this guide collectively. There is no personal byline, and the site names no author.

On October 7, 2026, the desk checked the facts against pages from Kawartha Downs and from Great Canadian, the operator. OLG's casino list, the City of Peterborough's transit pages and Ontario sources were read too. A number goes on a chart only when a source carries it. The distances run in straight lines from the venue's coordinates to the town points of OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors). The desk does not estimate driving times.

Six pictures appear in this guide, and an image generator made all six; not one is a photograph. Real photographs of Shorelines Slots at Kawartha Downs were the source for three. Those three show the green-lit slot row, the reel machines and the roadside sign by the track rail at dusk, each with its own angle, hour and light. The other three, two roads and an empty parking lot, show no particular place. There are no people in any of the six.

Times are Eastern time. Nothing to fill in here, and the colour theme stays in the open tab. Cookie-free page counts go to an outside tool, along with IP address, browser and page title.

Letters reach the Field Readings desk at press@fraservillecasino.com. A moved opening hour, a distance that looks wrong, or curiosity about how the readings are taken each merits one. That inbox serves the guide alone, not the venue. Questions for the slots themselves go to 705-939-2400.

Questions

ConnexOntario answers 24/7, so night hours are covered. The help costs nothing and is confidential: phone 1-866-531-2600, use the chat on connexontario.ca, or text CONNEX to 247247.
Is early cancellation of a My PlayBreak term possible?
No early cancellation is possible for a My PlayBreak term. A casino break closes every Ontario casino to the person; it runs 1 to 5 years, or else 3 or 6 months. Enrolment can start with the OLG Support Centre (1-800-387-0098), with venue staff, or at a PlaySmart Centre.
