The following excerpt is from Rex v. Robinson, 1917 CanLII 116 (SK CA):

The authority for the foregoing statement is the judgment of Darling, J., in Willis v. Young [1907] 1 K.B. 448; 76 L.J. K.B. 390, which is as follows: But I wish it to be clearly understood that I am not prepared to hold that an absolutely free and gratuitous distribution of chances by lot, none of which have been paid for, would be a lottery.
