Most recently, Canada learned that another major lottery jackpot was won. This time, a $55 million windfall was charged for one ticket located in the province of Alberta. Everyone in the region must check their tickets and winners can claim by contacting the Alberta Game, Liquor, and Cannabis Commission for up to 52 weeks.
Lotto Max is a very popular draw-based game throughout the Great White North due to its enormous prize money and two weekly draws. The winning numbers will be drawn on Tuesday and Friday. The main prize of the game can reach C$70 million, and if it exceeds C$50 million, it can also secure several Max Million prizes.
Shortly after the draw on Tuesday, Apr. 25, 2023, AGLC and other local lottery tickets reported that Lotto Max won with one lottery ticket. It was later announced that the owner of the winning lottery ticket would reside in Alberta. According to the Crown Corporation, the winner is not from Edmonton or Calgary, and it takes up to 52 weeks to claim the main payment.
Tuesday's jackpot was the biggest lottery win in the region since Calgary won a whopping C$70 million (W70 million) in the October 2022 game. The AGLC reported that the most recent winning numbers were 04, 19, 21, 33, 37, 38, and 39. Meanwhile, 42 were drawn as bonus numbers. Everyone is advised to check their tickets for the draw.
As mentioned, Alberta also witnessed its owner Mitchell Dick of Calgary win a whopping C$7 million (W7 million) jackpot at the Lotto Max last year. According to the AGLC, his main prize is the biggest Lotto Max 1 win in Alberta history. His lottery ticket was a moment of impulsive purchase and fortunately turned out to be quite good.
Mr. Dick then said that he always dreamed of driving a nice car or living in an equally nice house, and that it is now quite possible with the prize money. In addition, he also announced plans to give his family a few days off at work during the Christmas holiday. The money will help him secure the children's future and use it for their education.
keeping one's word
Meanwhile, another Lotto Max award winner kept his promise to use it forever. In the summer of 2022, Marcel Lussier, who lives in Bros.ard, Quebec, had a windfall worth $70 million. At the time, a retired Hydro Quebec employee said he would use this incredible reward to rebuild Ukraine and do good.
It recently turned out that he is sharing a portion of his huge cash. He is donating 10 percent of his prize money, or about $7 million (W700 million) to the Berrot Louis Foundation. It is a non-profit charity that raises funds to help build homes for adults with autism. They are going to build two houses, one downstream from Laurentian and the other downstream from Victoriaville. 동행복권파워볼
