MONTREAL -- A 22-year-old worker at an IGA grocery store in a suburb of Quebec City won Tuesday's record-tying $70-million Lotto Max jackpot.
While Loto-Quebec would not confirm the identity of the the winner, people familiar with the winner told CTV Montreal and Rouge FM radio in Quebec City that the grocery bagger checked the winning ticket Wednesday morning at the IGA Extra in the Saint-Romuald district of Levis, on the south shore of Quebec City, where he works.
The store from which he bought the ticket will receive a $700,000 commission - equivalent to one-per-cent of the prize - for having sold the winning ticket.
The draw also resulted in eight $1-million prizes being won in Quebec, Ontario, the Prairies and Atlantic Canada.
This marks the second time in less than two months that a $70 million jackpot has been at stake. The last draw was won on Jan. 7 in Ontario.
The jackpot for next Friday's Lotto Max lottery draw will be $19 million.
Lotto Max draws are twice a week – on Tuesdays and Fridays. For each $5 play, players receive three sets of seven numbers ranging from one to fifty. Players must match all seven numbers, in any one set, to win the jackpot or the Maxmillion prizes.
