  • Western Canada Lottery Alberta Division 1983 Annual Report
    University of Calgary PRISM: University of Calgary's Digital Repository Alberta Gambling Research Institute Alberta Gambling Research Institute 1983 Western Canada Lottery Alberta Division 1983 annual report Western Canada Lottery Alberta Division Western Canada Lottery Alberta Division http://hdl.handle.net/1880/47307 technical report Downloaded from PRISM: https://prism.ucalgary.ca GOV DOC CA1 24- 3/ 1983 GOV PUB Ex LIBRIS UNIVERSITATIS ALBERT/EN SIS Message from the Chairman Lotteries in Alberta has enjoyed a successful 1983. In review, our achievements are in three important areas; stable revenues, organizational development, and the positive contributions our beneficiaries have made to the quality of life of Albertans. Despite a depressed economy our revenue picture is encouraging. The departure from a commercial distribution system has contributed 1.5 million dollars to our bottom line. This cost-saving innovation plus our ongoing development of a professional sales force attuned to market development and dealer support have contributed significantly to our overall success. This year's achievements included the province-wide introduction of a new, active game, Lotto 6/49. It's rapid acceptance by Albertans can be directly attributed to the outstanding marketing and promotion capabilities of our Division management. This plus the establishment of the Ticket Issuing and Validating Machine (TIVM) network launched a new era for lottery games in Alberta. By successfully introducing new products and improving distribution we have helped 'Make it happen' for Albertan beneficiaries. This has resulted in a heightened public awareness of the role lottery funds play in our province. The Board continues to look forward to increased service to all Albertans through the expansion of facilities by the partners and the promotion of recreational, cultural and sports activities by the beneficiaries.

  • 2019 Annual Report
    Annual Report 2019 Championing young Canadians to take ownership of their present. And future. President's Message A reflective look on 2019 It is with a great deal of pride that I reflect upon the past 2 years. The Award in Canada continues to make great strides in managing its use of technology to increase our reach and assist our participants and leaders. Online registration and record books, as well as increased social media communication have greatly improved our ability to support our entire community with their commitment to achievement. The decision to undertake the Award is no small thing. Our participants must continuously choose to dedicate themselves to a path of challenge, ambition, dedication and altruism. The sense of accomplishment once they achieve each level is significant, but the truest impact continues to be experienced over a lifetime. We have been, therefore, thrilled to witness the impact and success of our Youth Resiliency Project (YRP) throughout our entire Division. Criminally involved youth have not before had the opportunity to experience the benefits of the Award in our division, but as of December 2019, 29 have achieved their Bronze and 7 have achieved their Silver Awards. We continue to drive towards making the Award available to as many young Canadians as possible and pledge to continue to the support life-changing advantages to self-realization. To that end, we have forged relationships with local partners to re-establish our presence in the North. Our gratitude goes to our partners, leaders and generous donors whose financial contributions have enabled us to pursue engage young people as they pursue the journey of a lifetime.
