Camrose radio station CFCW is reporting the winning ticket was sold in that small city to a group of people who will share the big win!

Sinc, any truth to the rumor that all lottery winnings as of yesterday are now taxable in the province of Alberta???????????? It was just on the CBC (Can't Buy Comedy) station. :)

What I find interesting is that in an informal survey done by the Edmonton Journal, more people said they would travel or pay off the mortgage than anything else. Personally I'd get the heck out of this cold part of the world and live near a nice warm ocean. Am I the only one?

Best wishes to our lucky Alberta friends! I just hope they were a group of dirt-poor factory workers and that their new-found wealth brings them only joy.

They seem like fine people, and quite natural in their joy. I recall when Chuck Furey won here in NL while he was still sitting in the NL House of Assembly.

Did anyone hear about the co-worker who missed out on the millions because his shift was opposite the day they bought the ticket? And to add insult to injury, the reporters show the guy working the day after and ask him how he felt.

Ouch. Dig just a little deeper and make sure the wound is fully open before you twist the knife. ;)

Missed it by that much.
