Millions won in Ontario, but Lotto Max jackpot remains unclaimed for another week

Another week has passed and the Lotto Max jackpot has gone unclaimed.

Friday’s draw saw the jackpot remain unclaimed, though several million-dollar tickets were won around the province, Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp. said.

On Wednesday, the OLG said the Lotto Max jackpot had never gone unclaimed this long before. There have been 18 draws since the jackpot was last won.

Six tickets worth $1 million were picked in Ontario during Friday’s draw, while several other tickets, including a $1.4 million second-place prize, were also selected.
