Montréal, October 27, 2025 – Loto-Québec is

looking for people with two winning tickets worth $1,000,000 each, sold in Lanaudière and the Laurentides. Plus, we’ve been waiting since last fall for the winner of a Grand Vie lifetime annuity of $25,000 per year to claim their prize. The countdown is on: The lucky winner of this big prize has only one month left to come forward.

Highlights

• Loto-Québec has been looking for the holder of the $1,000,000 Spécial de l’été ticket since the draw on June 20. The winning ticket was purchased in the Matawinie RCM in Lanaudière.
• The winning ticket for a guaranteed prize of $1,000,000 in the January 4 Lotto 6/49 draw was sold in the Thérèse-de-Blainville RCM in the Laurentides. The ticket holder has only about two months left to claim their prize.
