安大略省计划以新的赌场推动尼亚加拉瀑布的旅游业,但由于基础设施薄弱、竞争激烈、没有资金,面临障碍。 Ontario's plan to boost Niagara Falls tourism with new casinos faces hurdles due to poor infrastructure, competition, and no funding.

总理道格·福特(Doug Ford)于2025年12月15日揭幕「目的地尼亚加拉」(Destination Niagara), Premier Doug Ford unveiled "Destination Niagara" on December 15, 2025, a plan to boost tourism in Niagara Falls by attracting large-scale casino developments with hotels, entertainment, and international operators. 该倡议面临重大挑战,包括陈旧的运输基础设施、伊丽莎白女王之路的拥挤以及过境和机场升级延迟。 The initiative faces major challenges, including outdated transportation infrastructure, congestion on the Queen Elizabeth Way, and delayed upgrades to transit and airports. 产业领袖们强调,改善进入新赌场的机会对于新赌场的成功至关重要,而在线赌博和纽约Seneca Niagara度假村等附近设施的竞争则引起人们对市场饱和性的担忧。 Industry leaders stress that improved access is essential before new casinos can succeed, while competition from online gaming and nearby facilities like the Seneca Niagara Resort in New York raises concerns about market saturation. 福特批评目前的运营商莫赫根投资不足,并要求提出新的提案,尽管没有为关键基础设施项目拨款。 Ford criticized the current operator, Mohegan, for insufficient investment and called for new proposals, though no funding has been allocated for key infrastructure projects. 由于后勤、财政和竞争方面的障碍,该计划的成功仍然不确定。 The plan’s success remains uncertain due to logistical, financial, and competitive hurdles.
