VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- Documents show that the BCLC (British Columbia Lottery Corporation) was alerted on its failure to identify and report suspicious transactions, CTV News reported.

Internal government audit documents detail Gaming Enforcement and auditors warning the BCLC it was "breaking the rules", CTV said.

The BCLC is facing a $670,000 fine from Canada's money laundering watchdog, which it intends to appeal, CTV News made note.
