SPECIAL NOTICE TO CANADIAN ENTRANTS: THE PERSON SELECTED RANDOMLY WILL BE REQUIRED TO CORRECTLY ANSWER A MATHEMATICAL QUESTION INVOLVING AT LEAST FOUR OPERATIONS THAT INVOLVE AT LEAST TWO DIGIT NUMBERS.

Why would you have to do that?

Why would you have to do that?

You have to have a certain amount of intelligence to win in Canada.
