The Atlantic Canada lottery, which is also commonly referred to as the ALC, the AC Lottery and even the Loto Atlantique, was launched in 1976, right after more lotteries were launched here in there, all over Canada. Despite all of ALC’s primary lottery games being played in just the country, the lottery association was very quick to upgrade by joining a company which offered national drawing – the Interprovincial Lottery Corporation.
ALC is well-known for being the first lottery which printed a bar code on all their scratch and draw tickets in 1988, as this allowed instant verification of all prizes.
As of now, ALC has managed to award over $5.5 billion in prizes and has also given out $5.9 billion to its four shareholders in profits.
WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?
Alongside Atlantic Canada lotto results changing multiple lives, we have also found that when we break down the Canadian dollar, almost all of the money earned by ALC stays in the country. Around 36 million are distributed as profits of the lottery, and 35 million is given to all of the people who have won a prize through the lottery. Around 12 million is given to the retailers in the ALC.
While 6 million is for the operations of the Atlantic Canada, 3 million is set aside to run the operations of the lottery itself. Then we have 4 million which is earned through taxes, and the remaining 4 million is used up in salaries and benefits of all the people working in the Atlantic Canada lottery.
GAMES OFFERED BY THE ALC:
The ALC offers plenty of unique games. It actually has such a large variety of lottery games, that it is confirmed that there is something for everyone interested in playing the lottery. The AC lottery results let almost everyone win.
Atlantic Canada lottery results come from instant games such as AC lotto which come under a wide category known as “Breakopen” and offers around 45 minor lottery games such as Quick Bucks, Scavenger Hunt, Criss Cross, Cash Mania, Bar 10 Bonus, Flaming 7's Bonus, Atlantic Win, Max Bonus, Super Bar, and Triple Cherries Bonus. These instant games can help you win from $100 to $999 in an instant!
Another friendly gaming licensed establishment offered by ALC is known as Coasters, in which you can even play games, alongside buying Breakopen and Scratch‘N Win tickets.
Another establishment which helps you win major prizes from jackpots to trips and cars is known as 2Chance, in which you sign up on the website and start winning, once you get lucky. But the sad part about this game is that it is only for people residing in the 4 Atlantic Provinces.
Other games of ALC include LOTTO 6/49, POKER LOTTO and LOTTO MAX and POKER LOTTO, etc.

Once you have won a prize from the Atlantic Canada winning numbers, and you bought your ticket from a shop, you can claim it by primarily signing your ticket, then confirming that you have won by going on the winning numbers page of the lottery. You should bring a photocopy of your winning ticket.
