A whirlwind 48 hours has seen padlocks go on — and now come off — the front doors of Casino by Vanshaw at the Medicine Hat Lodge.
News staff at the casino on Tuesday afternoon were told by casino managers that the gaming establishment would reopen on Wednesday, at which time a full statement would be provided.
The following statement was posted on the Facebook page of Casino by Vanshaw on the afternoon of Jan. 3:
On January 2, 2017, the Medicine Hat Lodge sought to terminate the Vanshaw Casino’s Lease and locked the casino’s doors. They did so without a Court Order and acted on their own and in our view without legal authority. We responded immediately and on January 3, the Court of Queen’s Bench ordered the Medicine Hat Lodge to restore Vanshaw’s access to the Casino premises.
Vanshaw Casino supports 182 non- profit groups as well as 80 families through employment. We believe that the Medicine Hat Lodge has broken the law by locking us out and we will pursue further remedies. We are also taking steps to move our facility to a more community supportive location. It is my intention to continue to serve our local groups with Casino fund raising opportunities for many years to come. I would like to thank all involved for their patience and support.
We have been serving the community for 24 yrs. and will continue to do the same for at least another 24 yrs.

Kenney says retail stores and churches can remain open, but at 15 per cent capacity.
Kenney is also imposing a provincewide mask mandate in indoor public spaces, including workplaces, and is banning social gatherings of any size indoors or out.
Alberta was the only province without a provincewide mask requirement, although many communities were already mandating face coverings.
