Well assuming that you are Canadian and living in Canada you dont have to pay any taxes IIRC on anything that you win.
Yah, according to my Tax friend you don't get taxed on windfall gains. However, you would get dinged if you're living off the interest generated by the winnings.


BBS: Really? I thought pretty much every lottery gave you the option of taking the lump sum or getting paid out the present value of your winnings X years from now. [/b][/quote]
I could be wrong, but I thought Canadian lotteries paid out right away. I'm not 100% sure why I think that though.
