Canadians Embark On $1 Million Treasure Hunt Across The Country

The Northern Miner trade journal has hidden $1 million worth of gold coins and smaller caches across Canada in the Great Canadian Treasure Hunt. The grand prize features 217 one-ounce gold coins, while 12 smaller caches are worth $25,000 each. A 52-line riddle-filled poem provides clues to the locations, which cannot be on private property, underwater, or in dangerous areas. The hunt continues through 2026, and if the treasure remains unclaimed, the prize will not be awarded. Only Canadian adults are eligible to participate, and they must scrutinize the poem carefully for intentional typos and misdirection about landforms, trees, minerals, and other potential clues.
