On this side of the border, Lotto Max has its own record-breaking jackpot with an estimated $60-million jackpot plus 53 additional and separate chances to win Maxmillion prizes worth $1-million.
The odds of winning with Lotto Max are one in 28-million, sounds like a long-shot, but better than stateside. Plus, Canadian winnings are tax-free.
