Find the Public Phone and win $10,000

[ZedZidaric]

Kind of a lame contest.

I need to listen to the radio all day and track clues for the chance to win $170 ($120 in phone service and $50 phone). Pass.

Then there is a CHANCE to win $10k.

Why are the odds 1 in 9 in Montreal but 1 in 10 in Toronto?

Contest runs for 11 days in Montreal with 11 potential participants in the grand finale. In Toronto the contest runs for 5 days with five potential contestants. How does this translate into the quoted odds?
