Yes we do. 5 cents per dollar. Bus tickets/passes, at least in BC are maybe half that at best. It may be peanuts in say a convenience store, but it can add up really quick, especially since the most expensive bus pass is $153.
Plus, remember that there are lottery booths in malls. The revenue is *all* lottery, maybe bus passes too.

Oh, Keno in itself is a fun game, but I see people every day addicted to the thing... and lose tons.
