"By the time workers finish putting in the gaming room's 600 slot machines and 40 gaming tables, the casino will be a third larger than the city's largest gambling operation, Yellowhead Casino.
"…Gambling revenue will be shared amongst the Enoch Cree Nation, the Alberta Lottery Fund, the band's business partner, Las Vegas-based Paragon Gaming Inc., and Alberta's other First Nations."
