    Data summaries on every results page

    Each game's results page and each year page now opens with the year in figures: draws held, the most and least drawn numbers, the comparison with the year before and, where the operators' prize records are on file, how often the top prize was won and the largest jackpot won. All of it is counted from the draws; none of it is a prediction.

    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.

    Draw nights: results from several official sources at once

    For Lotto Max, Lotto 6/49, Daily Grand, Powerball and Mega Millions, every official source is asked for the numbers each minute after the draw. The first official reading is published; when a second source agrees the draw is verified, and a draw two sources disagree on is taken off the site until it is checked.

  9. · Data

    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.

    Results, statistics and number pages for 39 provincial and regional draw games, each from its operator's own published results.

    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.

  12. · Correction

    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.
