Casino Windsor is laying off 297 unionized and 32 non-unionized staff due to a slowdown, casino official Holly Ward said. She cited a provincial smoking ban, the U.S. exchange rate and high gas prices for the slowdown. She says construction at the casino is also driving away customers. Renovations to the gaming floor should be done by the end of the year, she said, so some workers will be called back. Ontario's ban on smoking in public places took effect May 31. Bingo parlour operators predicted a drop in customers because of the ban and some have warned that layoffs or closures would be inevitable.
