The second largest lottery jackpot in Canadian history will be divided between four ticket holders in Ontario and Quebec.

Three of the four winning tickets for Saturday's $43.2 million Lotto 6-49 draw were bought in Ontario, and another in Quebec.

The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation said two of the tickets were purchased in the Greater Toronto Area, and the third in southwestern Ontario.

The winners, who have not yet been identified, will each take home $10.8 million.

Saturday's jackpot was the second largest lottery prize in Canadian history, more than $10 million shy of the record-setting draw for $54 million in October 2005.

That prize was claimed by 17 oil company workers from Camrose, Alta., who each pocketed $3 million in the 6-49 draw.

Those who didn't take home the top prize will have another chance at a big jackpot this Friday when a Lotto Super 7 jackpot worth $15 million will be up for grabs.
