When we get it wrong, we say so.
Lottizen publishes figures copied and counted from official sources. When one of them turns out to be wrong or missing, we fix it and record the fix here.
Our policy
- The official source decides. A draw, prize or deadline is corrected to what the operator’s own record says. When an operator’s newer announcement is more specific than its older list, the newer one is what we show, cited with its title, date and link.
- We never guess. When two official sources disagree and no third settles it, the draw is left out of the history and the statistics and marked on its year page, rather than picking one.
- Fixed everywhere at once. Statistics, number pages and reports are recomputed from the corrected record, and a wrong draw is recorded as excluded, with its reason, so a later re-import can’t bring it back.
- Logged. Each correction of published figures, and each gap filled in, is listed below with its date, what was wrong and what the pages show now.

Corrections and gaps filled
Québec games: draws on the 1st of each month in 2026 were missing
Loto-Québec writes the first of a month as "1er", which our reader didn't recognise, so 2026 draws held on the 1st of a month were left out for the Québec-only games (Québec 49, Québec Max, La Grande Vie, Triplex, La Mini, Banco, Tout ou rien, Extra, Quotidienne). Earlier years came from Loto-Québec's yearly files and were complete. The missing draws were read again from Loto-Québec's results and the statistics recomputed.
Missing Daily Grand and Lotto 6/49 draws filled in
Seven Daily Grand draws (2021–2025) and four Lotto 6/49 draws (May 2, 1998; Aug. 15, Aug. 18 and Sept. 15, 2012) were missing from the archives we had read. They were filled in from BCLC's per-draw records; the Daily Grand draws match Atlantic Lottery's results exactly.
Jackpot history for Lotto Max, Lotto 6/49, Daily Grand and Lottario
Each draw's jackpot, whether the top prize was won and where the winning tickets were sold, from official sources only. A draw whose sources disagree is left out and listed with the reason.
OLG daily games, 2019–2025: gaps filled from OLG's news releases
Draws missing from the record were read from OLG's published draw-result releases. 46 draws with no readable official source (45 without any release, one where OLG's two releases disagree) are listed on their year pages as not recorded, rather than left out silently.
Draws whose official sources disagree are no longer shown
Where two official sources publish different numbers for the same draw and no third official source settles it, we no longer pick one. The draw is left out of the history and the statistics and listed on its year page as "Official source records disagree; not recorded": 67 Western Extra dates (2005–2025) and 42 Western Pick dates.
