Canada gets excited over Lotto draws

This week the whole of Canada gets excited over Lotto draws and it’s little wonder as both the Lotto Max and Lotto 6/49 have rolled over, which means there is over $40 million up for grabs this week in the Canadian Lottery draws combined. The end of last year saw some big jackpots in Canada, particularly the $50 million Lotto Max jackpot (which has still not been released) but both Canadian lottery draws are on the climb again and are already attracting the interest of world lottery players too.

First up is Wednesday’s Lotto 6/49 Canada and that one has a massive $7 million jackpot as Saturday’s draw rolled over. Unlike the US lottery draws, the Canada Lotteries are tax-free so this $7 million should be a very appealing sum.

However, the one everyone is waiting for, not just in Canada but around the world too is Friday’s Canada Lotto. This draw hasn’t yet seen a winner in 2011 and this Friday’s jackpot is an estimated $35 million. It means that if no winner is found this week we could be back at deadlock with a $50 million jackpot ceiling, and if that happens, who knows how many millionaires the lottery will see?

We’ll be watching this Lotto Max Canada jackpot closely now until it’s won, as will lottery players from around the world, all hoping to become Canada’s next big tax-free lottery jackpot winner! Make sure you check back to our news pages throughout the week for all the big world lottery stories!
