Ontario Lottery and Gaming says a $55-million jackpot and $14-million Maxmillions prizes are expected to be up for grabs in Friday night's Lotto Max draw.

OLG says since its launch in September 2009, Ontario Lotto Max players have won more than $2.4 billion, including 43 jackpot wins and 288 Maxmillions prizes.

OLG says the $55-million jackpot would be enough to cover the holiday bills for all the residents of Thunder Bay or pay off every household mortgage in Grand Valley.
