There were rollovers aplenty at the weekend and plenty of big winners too, but none in Canada, which means that this week the Canada Lotto jackpots are up to $50 million! There are two main lottery draws in Canada, the Lotto 6/49 held twice weekly and the Lotto Max held every Friday evening and with both rolling over at the weekend, all eyes are on the jackpots this week as players across Canada hold out hopes of becoming the next instant millionaire!

Let’s start with the Lotto 6/49 Canada, as this one is the first jackpot up this week. The next draw is on Wednesday evening and if you want to be a Canada Lotto winner then you’ll be trying to match six numbers from a possible 49 to win the $20 million rollover jackpot!

Then on Friday it’s the turn of the Canada Lotto Max, with no winner last Friday evening, this week’s jackpot is worth a staggering $30 million, and if past popularity of this draw is anything to go by, it may get even bigger than that! The Lotto Max plays a little differently and while there are still 49 balls, you would need to match seven to win!

Make sure you check back later in the week to get all the news about both draws, and don’t forget that Canada Lottery jackpots are entirely tax-free! Unlike their American counterparts, Canada don’t tax lottery winnings and that means if you get lucky then you collect the jackpot in its entirety!
