I believe lottery licenses are the jurisdiction of the municipality, so check if your city has a form for a lottery license and it should explain what the dollar amount/prize value restrictions are.

In my case it would be a fun contest through the internet and would include as many Provinces or even States as possible. It wouldn't be localized to my community, and the webhosting is serviced in Vancouver (though I don't live there).
