Lotto game offers $1 million a year prize31 January 2007WINNIPEG, Manitoba – (PRESS RELEASE) - What if you were lucky enough to win $1 Million on a lottery game? If you're like most winners, you would make a few purchases, fulfill a few dreams and share some of your good fortune with your family. But, what if - after your initial excitement and fun - you received another $1 Million payment a year later, and then another $1 Million, and so on for a total of 25 consecutive years! This will happen to one lucky player on Canada's newest and most unique lottery game ever, Millionaire Life! Available throughout the month of February, Millionaire Life will award one player a Top Prize of $1 Million a year for 25 consecutive years! The game will also offer four impressive 'second' prizes of $1 Million and thirty-four (34) significant 'third' prizes of $100,000. "Millionaire Life is the first national lottery game to offer a Top Prize annuity, and it's a very attractive one," said John Matheson of Western Canada Lottery Corporation. "Canadian lottery players have never had the opportunity to win $1 Million a year for 25 consecutive years. For one lucky winner, they'll become a millionaire 25 times over!" The unique features on Millionaire Life don't stop with the Top Prize. - Every Selection purchased will be unique and not available to any other player in Canada. - Winning numbers will be drawn only from numbers sold, guaranteeing a winning ticket for every prize drawn. - The game will offer five prizes of $1 Million or more, and 34 prizes of $100,000! - $1.4 Million in Early Bird prizes will be available to players who purchase tickets in the game's first two weeks (February 1st to 14th). - Subsidiary prizes will be available for matching the first six, or last two, digits of the Top Prize winning number drawn. - Players will be able to choose between three price points: one Selection for $5; three Selections for $10 or seven Selections for $20. "We believe the four-week game will have strong appeal to our players," added Matheson. "It'll be different than any other product offered before and prizing will be strong with approximately $35 Million in prizes available." |
