The question really is, should we recognize the reality of our situation, and fully participate in casinos and gaming, and actually regulate it intelligently and tie it into our overall tourism efforts.&quot;But, casino development has other implications including, as researchers have discovered, a significant impact on health.

<title>Canton Gaming store is serious business</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/19576/20120328/canton-gaming-store-is-serious-business</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Mar 28, 2012) NCPR&apos;s occasional series on North Country entrepreneurs continues, with Aaron Reardon. Reardon’s a young guy, and a hard-nosed businessman. He started his first online business in college, and in June of 2007 he opened a bricks-and-mortar business: A gaming store in Canton called “Gamer Craze.” In the last five years, Gamer Craze has moved to a bigger space, opened and closed a second store in Potsdam, and shifted much of its business from traditional video games to a collectable trading card game called Magic: The Gathering.  It’s done well, and Reardon’s now looking for a bigger space. Gamer Craze is one of just a few bricks-and-mortar shops in the North Country where players can come to buy what they need and they can play, too: Reardon keeps tables set up for gaming, and sells snacks.  As Nora Flaherty found when she talked with Aaron Reardon, much of the store’s success has come from making it a place to hang out.
