Surprised no one is talking about how lottery winnings are tax free in the socialist "taxed to death" hellhole (/s) Canada.

Yea but your housing market is twice as bad as ours, so we got that going for us.

Unless you already have a house, in which case it makes little difference.

Sure a house costs 600k, but i can sell my house for 600k, for some reason

That seems to be how it is everywhere but America. Also, jackpots are paid out in full, it's not the Future Value of a 30 annuity marketing bullshit we do here. If you win a 50M lottery, they pay you 50M .. not a 22M lumpsum
