"Spokeswoman Darlene Doucet said Atlantic Lottery is looking to attract people who already use the internet to bank, make purchases and seek entertainment.

"Anti-gambling advocates fear the new service could create a new wave of addiction problems, but Doucet said a number of safeguards have been put in place to prevent that..." The site does not accept credit cards. It also has spending limits and a lock-out option for people with gambling problems. By lunchtime Tuesday, 100 people had bought their tickets online.
