Why are people of Quebec excluded?

BTW...The local news reports the border will reopen early next month.

Can someone explain the below to me regarding Quebec? Are people from Quebec not legal residents? Does this have something to do with the Nordiques leaving?

Here is what I could find on Google about Quebec

I feel a bit daft now I posted this thread before reading the rules of the contest- Mike if you win you can change your address to my Ontario address for a week to claim the ride :lol: I updated the thread title.

Funny Brandon!!!!

I do have also a legal address in Ontario..I should be covered!

It all has to do that all things related to contests, lottery & games are controlled by the local Québec provincial government. Registering something as simple as a this contest....can be a ?%#@%$pain.....hence excluding Québec. We are used to it.

Wow, that is unfortunate for something as innocuous as a lottery for an airplane ride from a museum.

I’m married to a Canadian and my late FIL was a tail gunner in Lancasters with 431 Squadron (and involuntary guest of the German Gov). Think I could plead my case?

People from Texas would want to ride in a Lancaster. My airplane is based at Lancaster, KLNC.
