With the $105 Million Lotto MAX jackpot, residents of Ontario and Quebec — both places of high Lotto MAX sales — are the suspected cause of today’s earthquake. Vancouver residents, after hearing the news, are now referring to the Ontario/Quebec Canadian Jackpot Chasers as “QUAKERS“. With the world coming to Toronto this week for the G50 (GEE I want to win $50 Million on Lotto MAX), the risk of more tremors will be blamed on the ‘QUAKERS’. The province of Quebec has already denied any involvement. If you have not got your ticket yet, please pick a safe time to play.

The first tremor hit at 1:40 p.m. ET Wednesday.
