Winner will be contacted by telephone or by e-mail during the week following the draw and should claim their prize as instructed by CBC by no later than seven days after the date they are initially contacted. If a winner cannot be reached within seven days following the first attempt of contact, incorrectly answers the mathematical skill-testing question, declines the prize, or fails to return the required release form, the prize shall be forfeited and CBC has the right, at its sole discretion, to select another winner.
The winner will receive a trip for four to Calgary including:

- some meals and beverages;
- transportation costs, including round-trip transfers between the winner’s residence and departure airport;
- travel insurance (cancellation, medical, etc.);
- gratuities, tips, taxes of any kind;
