Three numbers to keep
Should you need it, 1-800-461-1234 is the number for New Brunswick Gambling Information Line. The Department of Health runs it, and every call is free and confidential. It answers 24/7, on a weekday morning or well after midnight. If the number looks familiar, that is because Casino New Brunswick gives the same one.
Two other provincial lines are worth saving to your phone. The Addiction and Mental Health Helpline is 1-866-355-5550, and Tele-Care 811 is open 24/7 as well. Keep both next to the first number, in case the question on your mind is wider than gambling.
On site, in the pedway
The Responsible Gaming Information Centre, or RGIC, is just outside Casino New Brunswick, in the pedway towards the Molson Canadian Centre. You can reach it by phone at 506-861-4699, before or after a visit. The centre explains the casino's Voluntary Self-Exclusion program to visitors, and enrolment goes through the RGIC.
One detail matters before you enrol. Once a player self-excludes, their Rewards Club membership is suspended right away, and any outstanding balance is forfeited. Questions about how the rest of the program works can go to the same number.
Breaks on ALC.ca
On ALC.ca, a player can take a break of 1 to 90 days. A longer pause is also available as a long break, chosen from 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. From the moment it is set, the player and Atlantic Lottery alike lose the power to reverse it. The site also offers a weekly deposit limit, a daily time limit and a daily wager limit. Choose the long break with that in mind, because it holds until its final day.
Before you sit down
Before you sit down, settle two things, the way you would confirm a dinner reservation. One is the evening's budget; the other is the hour you will go up to your room. Decide both at the start of the night, not halfway through it. A note on your phone does the job. When the hour comes, the decision is already made, and all that is left is the walk back to the hotel.

Is the Gambling Information Line only for people who gamble?

Can a long break on ALC.ca be lifted early?
A long break cannot be lifted early. Neither Atlantic Lottery nor the player can undo a 6-, 12-, 24- or 36-month break once it is in place. Shorter breaks run from 1 to 90 days.
