What would you do if you won?
 
LancsLad would...

...buy an island and manage his own white race. All over his face.

I would summarily purchase a nearby island full of hawt exotic women and we would throw coconuts at his pure, immigrant, strife free blue balls.

We would not allow visitors from his barren island. :p

You are the master of wit. Are you actually suggesting that such a place might exist. If you won the lottery blitz it couldn't make your family any happier. You could then move out of their basement and into the real world.
 
1 winning ticket, in Quebec

I when the prize gets that big, they should divide it in 2 or 3 and make second prize bigger

So what you are saying is that it is perfectly acceptable for you to have selective entry provisions for something you control but the taxpayers of Canada should not have the same rights for this country. Thats just typical of the twisted " logic" of the left. You do indeed have so little to be proud of.

Yeah, if there were 3 winners, it would be sooooo much easier to win!!!

BTW. there are as many winners as have the right numbers. It could be won by thousands if lucks is on their side.
 
It always struck me as strange that the paycheques we work for get taxed to death, but if you get lucky and win $30 million in a lottery the government won`t take a cent of it.

Why not reduce income tax in exchange for a tax on lottery jackpots? The winner will still be set for life, but the rest of us would appreciate having a little extra cash.

$35 million for this week. :)

I see one of the other review boards has a pool for the lottery, any chance of getting one going here?
 
Tax

Lotteries are already looked at as a voluntary tax aimed at the poor . The profits are being used to pay for services that higher taxes would pay for otherwise . As consumers we can aim our money at hospitals or specific causes if we choose too .

Boo
 
True

If there weren't any contributions from the lottery corporations for public institutions or equipment such as in hospitals, taxes would be higher. So in effect, we are already enjoying a reduced tax thank to the lotteries. Also, if they taxed the winnings, even 35 million would only reduce each of our taxes by $1.00
 
Lotteries have always been run by the provinces. The profits from the lotteries are added to the provinces' revenues. Lotteries in effect are being "taxed" as only about 50% of the receipts are ever distributed as winnings. If they wanted to, the provinces could double the jackpots and charge a 50% tax on the winnings, or even simply reduce the winnings and add the savings to the provincial budgets. I would submit that there would be little difference between say winning $10 Million tax free or $20 Million fully taxed. However, as between the provinces, if the winnings were taxed, the province of residence of the jackpot winner would receive the tax while under the current system the provinces share revenues based on ticket sales. Of course, the provinces could easily arrive at an appropriate revenue sharing arrangement under a taxable model.

Ottawa, in an uncharacteristic display of respect for classical federalism, chooses not to interfere with provincial lotteries, either in the regulation thereof or the tax treatment of the winnings.
