Playing the Canadian Lottery
Playing the Canadian Lottery
The Canadian Lottery offers 2 national lotteries and 5 provincial lotteries. The two national games, Lotto 6/49 and lotto Super 7, are available to all of Canada. These games provide larger jackpots than the Provincial games because they are played by more people. As a result, the jackpots can rise faster and higher than other games. The 5 provincial lotteries providing lots of exciting games for their respective citizens are: Atlantic Canada, British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, and Western Canada.
Playing Lotto 6/49
One of the most popular and lucrative Canada Lottery games is Lotto 6/49. In 2005 it paid out a record jackpot of $54.3 Million!

Buying Canada Lottery Tickets
If you are intrigued by these Canada Lottery games but don’t live in Canada check out the official Canadian lottery website. At the present time the Canadian lottery does now allow the sale of online lottery tickets. This can be a serious inconvenience for those in the Northern provinces who often must travel long distances to reach the nearest lottery retailer. Hopefully Canada will give its residents the ability to purchase lotto tickets online in the near future.
