The abysmal year that is 2020 could take a pretty rich turn for someone who hasn’t yet checked a bigtime lottery loot from October 9.
Loto-Québec is searching for the unclaimed winner of the Lotto Max $70 million draw from 13 days ago.
It’s essentially the real-life version of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, but instead of candy, it’s a full bank account.

What’s more, two $1,000,000 prizes and one $500,000 prize have yet to be claimed as well. The winning tickets were purchased in Gatineau, Thérèse-De Blainville, and Saint-Hubert.
