Last updated: June 2026 — Kevin Leblanc, Experimentality
```htmlAt Experimentality (experimentality.net), every casino review you read is built on a foundation of real, hands-on testing. Site owner and lead reviewer Kevin Leblanc personally registers an account, makes deposits using his own money, plays games, contacts customer support, and requests withdrawals before a single word of a review is written. No casino is rated based on marketing materials, operator briefings, or secondhand information. This page explains exactly how that process works and how we arrive at the scores you see on our site.
The Canadian online casino market in 2026 is more crowded than ever. Dozens of new platforms launch every year, and not all of them deserve your trust or your money. Generic, copy-paste reviews that recycle operator-supplied content do real harm to players who rely on that information to make financial decisions. Kevin Leblanc built Experimentality to be a different kind of resource — one where every rating reflects lived experience, critical analysis, and an unwavering commitment to the Canadian player's best interests.
Before spending any time on a casino, Kevin checks for a valid gambling licence from a recognised regulatory authority. If a site cannot demonstrate legitimate licensing, the review process stops immediately and the casino is not listed on Experimentality.
Kevin creates a real player account using his own personal details. This tests how smooth the sign-up process is, whether age and identity verification is handled responsibly, and whether the site is genuinely accessible to players in Canada.
A real deposit is made using payment methods common among Canadian players, including credit cards, e-wallets, and Interac where available. Welcome bonuses and ongoing promotions are claimed and their terms — wagering requirements, game restrictions, maximum bet rules — are read in full and tested in practice.
Kevin plays a cross-section of the game library including slots, table games, and live dealer titles. He evaluates loading speed, software quality, fairness certification, and the overall variety available to players.
Support channels are contacted via live chat, email, and where available, telephone. Kevin records response times, the accuracy of answers given, and how agents handle questions about responsible gambling.
A withdrawal is initiated to verify that cashouts are processed within advertised timeframes, that no unexpected fees are applied, and that the verification process is reasonable rather than obstructive.
The casino is accessed on a mobile device to assess browser-based play and, where applicable, a dedicated app. Game availability, navigation ease, and performance on a smaller screen are all evaluated.
Each casino reviewed on Experimentality receives a final score out of 10. That score is calculated using six weighted categories. Here is how each category contributes to the overall rating:
| Category | Weighting | What We Evaluate |
|---|---|---|
| Licensing and Safety | 25% | Regulatory authority, responsible gambling tools, data encryption, fair play certification |
| Bonuses and Promotions | 20% | Offer value, wagering requirements, transparency of terms, ongoing loyalty rewards |
| Game Selection | 20% | Library size, software providers, live casino quality, exclusive titles |
| Payment Methods | 15% | Deposit and withdrawal options, processing times, fees, Canadian-friendly banking |
| Customer Support | 10% | Availability, response speed, accuracy, responsible gambling knowledge |
| Mobile Experience | 10% | Design responsiveness, game availability on mobile, app quality where applicable |
All casinos are scored on a scale of 1 to 10, with one decimal point of precision. Here is what each range means in plain terms:
Independence is not just a talking point here — it is built into how Experimentality operates. Kevin Leblanc funds all test deposits personally, and no casino operator is given editorial input, advance sight of a review, or the ability to influence a published score. While some reviews on this site contain affiliate links that may generate a commission if you sign up, those commercial relationships have zero effect on ratings. A casino with a low score is published as a low score, regardless of any affiliate arrangement. Experimentality does not accept payment for positive reviews, does not remove critical content at operator request, and does not list casinos that fail the licensing check — even if they offer a favourable affiliate deal.
Online casinos change. Licences get renewed or revoked, bonus terms shift, and new payment options are added. Kevin revisits published reviews on a regular basis to ensure the information you read on Experimentality reflects current conditions, not outdated snapshots. If a casino's circumstances change significantly, the rating is updated accordingly and the review is marked with a revision date.
