The record-setting $90 million Lotto Max jackpot was finally won by a ticket sold in Alberta following Tuesday night’s draw, OLG confirmed on Wednesday.

The top Lotto Max prize went unclaimed for several draws, pushing the pot up to a record-breaking $90 million, where it sat until Tuesday night.

The winning numbers were 08, 15, 19, 23, 26, 28 and 34, with a bonus number of 38.

Assuming the ticket holder comes forward — they have a year from the draw date — the prize money will be the largest ever awarded in a lottery in Canada, and comes six months after changes allowed the maximum prize to increase to $90 million, up from $80 million.

Twelve MaxPlus winning tickets, each worth $100,000, were sold in Sault St. Marie, Hamilton, Vaughan, Ottawa, United Counties of Prescott and Russell, Oxford County, Bowmanville, Pickering, Barrie, Oakville, and two via OLG.ca.

Five MaxPlus winning tickets, each worth $50,000, were sold in Welland, London, Simcoe County, Unionville, and one via OLG.ca. These prizes were shared with other tickets sold across Ontario and Canada.

One MaxPlus winning ticket worth $33,333.40 was sold in Toronto. This prize was shared with other tickets sold across Canada.

One Lotto Max second prize ticket worth $205,767 was sold in Scarborough. This prize was shared with other tickets sold across Canada.
