Group of Montreal work colleagues win $60-million Lotto Max jackpot
MONTREAL — A somewhat secretive group of Montrealers who recently won the $60-million Lotto Max grand prize picked up their cheques Wednesday and were presented to the media.
Quebec’s gaming authority described the nine winners as colleagues “who work in finance in downtown Montreal.”
Several of the big winners spoke to reporters but they wouldn’t say what they did for a living or where they worked.
When asked if they were already wealthy before they found out they would be sharing the $60 million in prize money, winner Julie Beland said “it depends on how each of us defines (rich).”
