GEObet Gambling Network has been appointed by Saskatchewan First Nations to look into opportunities and develop an online gaming solution that would provide revenue for Saskatchewan First Nations. GEObet has already made several presentations, among the most recent being one before the Special Indian Gaming Assembly in Prince Albert. “We are exploring online opportunities in order to create revenue for our communities and provide business and employment opportunities for our members. We are doing this by exercising our Inherent and Constitutional rights,” said Bernie Shepherd, the former Chief of the White Bear First Nation.
