$60 million Lotto Max jackpot won in the Prairies 

You might've thought the winning ticket was sold in Ontario or Quebec because it seems like a lot of winners are from those provinces.

That's not the case this time.

So if you're in the Prairies and played the lottery for this draw, check your ticket!

In addition to the jackpot, the $1 million Maxmillions prize was won with a selection sold in Quebec.
