That's been my argument for ages !
I'll take it further;
You know these casino operators will make it as easy as possible to get to with transit; Think free shuttles from Union all day every day ...
So the "vulnerable" community around the core (i.e. those on welfare and the like) aren't going to find it that difficult to get to said Casino regardless of where its built.
To me this alone should factor out any of the social impacts if the question is simply (build downtown, or elsewhere in the GTA).
I have a good feeling this will be going in Markham, downtown Markham likely. There was an article a while back regarding how Kyle Rae was hired to campaign againt the downtown casino in favour of one in *what was suspected to be Markham*, forgot the company.
