Who owns and runs them
Since May 5, 2026, the owner and operator of Great Canadian Casino Vancouver has been Petroglyph Development Group, which Snuneymuxw First Nation owns. A limited licence permits use of the Great Canadian name. Since June 16, 2026, River Rock has been owned by Petroglyph and Musqueam Capital Corp (Musqueam Indian Band), which bought it from Great Canadian Entertainment.
Great Canadian Entertainment still runs Hastings and Elements Casino Surrey. On November 7, 2025 it signed an agreement to sell the Hastings casino portion to Tsleil-Waututh Nation. It still requires sign-off from the City of Vancouver and from regulators; as of October 7, 2026, no closing had been announced. On March 9, 2026, Semiahmoo First Nation's Se-mi-ah-mu Development Corporation reached an agreement to buy Elements Casino Surrey.
Gateway Casinos & Entertainment runs Grand Villa, Starlight and both Cascades casinos, in Delta and Langley.
