ODDS: The odds of winning a Prize depend on the number of eligible entries received during the Contest Period.
Before being declared a winner, the selected entrant(s) must correctly answer, unaided, a timed mathematical skill-testing question administered by the Contest Sponsor. Before the Prize is awarded, Prize winner and guest will each be required to sign a standard declaration of compliance with the Official Rules and release forms releasing the Contest Sponsor and each of their respective affiliates, parent companies, subsidiaries, professional advisors, provincial liquor authorities and advertising and promotional agencies, and each of their directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents (collectively, the "Released Parties") from any and all liability arising out of, pursuant to, or as a result of the carrying out of the Contest, including, without limitation, liability arising from the acceptance of and usage of the Prize as awarded, the administration of the Contest and the selection of a potential winner.
If a potential prize winner does not respond to the Notification within the time stipulated, is found to be ineligible for any reason, declines to accept the Prize, or incorrectly answers the required mathematical skill-testing question, or runs-out of time to correctly answer the required mathematical skill-testing question, the potential winner will be disqualified and will forfeit the Prize. The Contest Sponsor may then, at their sole and absolute discretion, select another eligible entrant who will be subject to disqualification in the same manner. The Contest Sponsor will not be responsible for failed attempts to notify any potential winner.
Prize must be accepted as awarded and is not transferable, resaleable or redeemable for cash. All decisions of the Contest Sponsor shall be final and shall not be subject to appeal. Prize may be forfeited if delivery cannot be effected following reasonable efforts by Contest Sponsor.
No communication will be entered into by the Contest Sponsor with entrants except with selected entrant(s). The Contest Sponsor is not responsible for the failure, for any reason whatsoever, of a selected entrant to receive notification or for the Contest Sponsor to receive a selected entrant’s response.
