Overview
- The jackpot grew to $90 million after Tuesday night’s Lotto Max top prize went unclaimed, creating the largest single lottery purse ever offered in Canada for Friday’s draw.
- The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation says the Friday draw will include an estimated 18 MAXMILLIONS prizes worth $1 million each and 90 MAXPLUS prizes worth $100,000 each, bringing combined top-tier winnings to about $117 million.
- OLG reported multiple recent secondary winners across provinces, including two $1‑million MAXMILLIONS tickets sold in Whitby and Hamilton and shared $500,000 MAXMILLIONS tickets in Toronto and Mississauga.
- Separate Thanksgiving weekend draws produced a $5‑million Lotto 6/49 winner whose ticket was purchased in Ontario, and the next Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball prize is listed at $22 million for the upcoming draw.
- The run of rollovers has driven heavier play and media attention, prompting lottery operators to remind players to gamble responsibly and pointing to likely rises in ticket sales and prize‑claim activity if the jackpot remains unclaimed.
