Quebec retirees win $55M lottery jackpot on Halloween

Two Quebec retirees are $55 million richer after hitting the Lotto Max jackpot on Halloween.

Jean Laroque used the money from a small previous Lotto Max win to purchase a ticket for the Oct. 31 draw from a depanneur in Coaticook. He checked his ticket online the next day and said he was shocked when he saw $55,000,000 pop up on the screen.
