The British Columbia lottery, or the BC lottery as we commonly know it nowadays, was launched in 1969. And since that era, the lottery has developed games which are extremely exciting, fair and fun for everyone who partakes in them. The lottery games also play a massive role in contributing to the growth of the province.
It started when the states of B.C, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba joined forces and began creating lotteries in Western Canada. The sales of the BC lottery began on August 4, 1974.
