The legal framework, in short

PlayNow.com, run by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC), is the online casino authorised by the province of British Columbia. Other platforms you can reach in James Bay work under foreign licences, outside provincial supervision; iGaming Ontario licences only cover Ontario. Using an offshore site is not an offence for the player; the trade-off is weaker protection and slower dispute resolution.
