CanadaCanada: Canada lotteries hold nationwide raffle draw

By Todd Northrop

Lottery players across Canada this morning are checking their Millionaire Life raffle tickets to see if they will be set for life, or perhaps win a new set of wheels.

Millionaire Life, also called Vie de millionnaire, is a raffle game offered by the provincial lotteries across Canada during the month of March.  The drawing took place Thursday, March 31, at 9:00 pm Eastern Time.

A complete list of winning numbers for the drawing can be found at any of Lottery Post's Canada lottery results pages (www.lotterypost.com/results).

The game has prizes ranging from $20 up to the top prize of $1 million per year for 25 years, which can be redeemed as a $17 million lump-sum cash payment. 

The top prize ticket was sold in Québec.

Raffle tickets went on sale March 1, and cost $5 for 1 selection, $10 for 3 selections, or $20 for 7 selections.

Players who purchased their Millionaire Life tickets by March 17 were eligible to win one of 17 Early Bird bonus prizes — a 2011 Chevrolet Camaro (cash value $40,000).  The Early Bird drawing was conducted immedately after the main drawing Thursday.

The complete list of prizes includes:

  • (1) Top prize of $1 million per year for 25 years (or $17 million cash)
  • (4) prizes of $1,000 for matching the first 6 digits of the top prize number
  • (76,485) prizes of $20 for matching the last 2 digits of the top prize number
  • (31) 2011 Chevrolet Equinox (cash value $40,000)
  • (17) Early Bird 2011 Chevrolet Camaro (cash value $40,000)

I like raffles and would have liked to have gone up to Canada and gotten some tickets but I'm boycotting them until they stop calling french fries hot chips.

Sometimes you just have to draw the line.

                their max loto is a nice game bit pricey, but if it jackpots to over $50 mill, its worth the 20 min drive i would feel.

                i got a share in tickets with a pal who lives in canada. it was fun checking the 18 extra  draws for 1 mill ea when it jackpotted to $80M.

                 

                typical weird game tho, $2.50  a line and for every line u pick they give 2 quick picks!so 3 lines for $2.50. umm or was it $5?  eesh it was pricey anyhow

                      The cost for a Lotto Max ticket is $5 and each ticket has 3 sets of numbers. The April 8 jackpot is $50 million plus an estimated extra 23 prizes of $1 each.

                       

                      Good luck.

                            i went but i have not checked my ticket yet. i bought 2 twenty dollar tickets and hope i won one of the cars. i don't live near quebec and bc didn't win the big prize. so sad. so i hope for a car.
