In Norway, gambling is controlled by a state monopoly, same as our alcohol sales. Probably for the same reasons.

Canada too, you buy liquor and lotto tickets from a crown corporation
A lot of gambling is Canada is privatized. Sports gambling, for example. Most of the money being made in the gambling industry is not in the lotto.
Edit: Also the liquor thing varies by province. Ontario has a crown corporation selling liquor, but in Alberta all liquor sales are by private entities.
