There was no winning ticket in Friday’s drawing, which had a $ 65 million jackpot and none of the eight $ 1 million Maxmillions were won.

The top prize in the Lotto Max drawing on September 28 will be $ 70 million and there will be approximately 13 prizes of $ 1 million up for grabs.

According to Loto-Québec, since the launch of Lotto Max, 37 jackpots have been won in Quebec, including two jackpots of $ 70 million last year, the largest jackpots ever won in Quebec.

On October 9, 2020, a Montrealer won the Lotto Max jackpot of $ 70,000,000.

Shu Ping Li won this jackpot after playing the lottery for the first time, a statement from Loto-Québec reported.

A few months earlier, a group of eight people from the same family in the Quebec City region, the Mathieu-Julien family, won another $ 70 million jackpot in the drawing on February 25, 2020.

The lucky ticket had been bought by Gregory Mathieu, a young clerk-packer at a grocery store in Lévis, 20 minutes before the Loto-Québec sales terminals closed.
