Montreal family wins Lotto Max draw record-breaking jackpot $65,000,000

Montreal family wins Lotto Max draw – A family from Montreal won $65,000,000 in the June 11 Lotto Max draw. Thatâ€™s the biggest jackpot in Canadian history!

The winning ticket was purchased at Depanneur Springland, located at 2525 Rue Springland, in Montreal. The convenience store will collect a cool $650,000, i.e. 1% of the jackpot.

The family members celebrated their win during a press conference held today in Montreal.

Isabelle Jean, Loto-Quebecâ€™s President of Operations (Lotteries division) and Vice-President of Public Affairs, had this to say: Weâ€™ve never paid out such a huge jackpot! Lotto Max is one of Quebecâ€™s most popular lottery draws and weâ€™re thrilled that this is the second Lotto Max jackpot thatâ€™s been won here. Just one month ago, a group from Montrealâ€™s South Shore won a whopping $50,000,000 through Lotto Max.

Lotto Max only just recently moved to two draws a week, i.e. on Tuesdays and Fridays.
