Community Proud
Atlantic Lottery is proud to support Festivals and Events that bring communities to life all across Atlantic Canada.
“Where does the money go?” We get asked that a lot, and our answer is simple. Each year, 100% of ourprofit stays here to benefit our Atlantic communities. All of it. Every penny.
In 2020-2021, we returned $346.5 million to our provincial government shareholders:
We also awarded $601.9 million in prizes back to our players and $95.9 million in commissions to our almost 4,000 retailers. Plus, we employ more than 600 Atlantic Canadians and our operations in Atlantic Canada contribute to more than 6,938 jobs and $1.5 billion in economic activity.
Did you know? Since opening in 1976, Atlantic Lottery has provided $10.9 billion in profits to the four Atlantic Provinces.
