Rick Madonik / Toronto Star ) Order this photoCasino fever is building again as Caesars and five other companies consider bidding to build gambling resorts in job-starved Rexdale and two sites in the east GTA. That could involve location changes, except for council-dictated Woodbine, but plans require approval of OLG and Premier Kathleen Wynne’s cabinet. A Baltimore developer in 2013 scrapped plans for Woodbine Live!, a massive shopping and entertainment complex. In 2013, hopes of replacing OLG slot machines at Woodbine with a full casino were dashed when council rejected that along with a downtown casino. “It's in the (casino operator’s) best interest to make improvements in each site that improve them and don't clobber their other money-making sites,” Parish said.
