I'm told by Canadians here that it is illegal in Canada to have a contest
based totally on chance (I'm not sure what restrictions on this there are,
like whether various casino games are legal).  Thus, the winner of a drawing
has to pass some other test, in addition to having his ticket drawn, that is
not based on chance.  "What is 1 + 1" is sufficient.
