VANCOUVER — Someone in British Columbia has won a $31-million jackpot in the latest Lotto Max draw in the province. The B.C. Lottery Corporation says in a statement that a ticket sold online matched all seven winning numbers of the draw on Tuesday. It says the odds of winning the jackpot on a single $5 ticket is 1-in-33-million. The win comes after a Surrey, B.C., man won a record $80 million prize in May. At the time, the lottery corporation described it as the biggest jackpot ever awarded to a single person in Canada. The corporation says lotto players in B.C. have won more than $196 million from Lotto Max so far this year. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 24, 2025.
