*The source has stated the below reason for any change in direct expenses figures from 2018 onwards:
"Under federal/provincial agreements, the Government of Canada agreed to withdraw from the sale of lottery tickets and to refrain from re-entering the field of gaming and betting. In consideration, all provinces and territories of Canada pay 24 thousand Canadian dollars annually, in 1979 dollars, adjusted by the consumer price index each year."
