Mississauga resident Dwayne Reid has about 17.6 million reasons to smile right now. After matching all six numbers on the Nov. 30 Lotto 6/49 draw, Reid won the jackpot of $17.6 million. “I kept scanning my ticket to see if it was for real.”On top of the $17.6 million, Reid also won $5 from another selection on the same ticket, adding some extra dollars to his grand total. It’s the same location where he bought his first winning ticket four years ago. Since its launch in June 1982, Lotto 6/49 players in Ontario have won more than $12.8 billion in prizes, including 1,386 jackpot wins and 305 guaranteed $1 million prize draws.
