A group of four from Trenton is celebrating after winning $1 million in the ONTARIO 49 draw on July 11, 2026.
A release from OLG says that their ticket was one of two that split the $2 million top prize.
The group members are:
- Alvin B. of Trenton
- Alaine M. of Trenton
- Linda M. of Trenton
- Shellie M. of Trenton
The four retirees have been playing the lottery together every Friday for about a year.
“My wife and I woke up, made some coffee, and turned on the news,” Alaine recalled to OLG while visiting the OLG Prize Centre to collect the group’s winnings.
“She started checking our tickets and said, ‘I think we won $1 million!’ We were in disbelief. We called Alvin and his wife, and all four of us went straight to the store to check the ticket together.”
With their winnings, they plan to explore more of Canada and put some money in the bank.
The winning ticket was purchased at the Korner Store on Dundas Street West in Trenton.
