Lorette City resident Diane Hebert couldn’t believe her ears when she received a call from the Western Canada Lottery Corporation saying she had won $1 million Canadian dollars (about $733,600 dollars) in the Lotto Max draw of the 15 October.
“In fact, I initially received an email. I made $1 million, but I also made $2. Initially I thought the prize was only two dollars and that’s what the email was about, but then I got a phone call and wow!” explained Hebert, who purchased his ticket on the website PlayNow.com.
During the call, it was explained to Hebert that he had hit all seven numbers. His winning numbers were 9, 23, 23, 24, 34, 45 Y 46. Even then, Hebert had a bit of a hard time believing that she was a millionaire, as reported by the Daily Hive.
“The first thing I thought was that it was a joke. I checked my account again and only saw the $2. They were very patient with me.”
Hebert said that she actually never expected to win an award of this magnitude.
” Even at this moment, I can hardly believe that be true. You think about this for so long when you’re buying tickets, but it’s still a total shock!” said the lucky winner when she went to collect her prize.
Hebert said that she is overwhelmed with the news and needs some time to think about what she will do with her new fortune.
Yes, she said that for the moment it comes to her It came to mind that you could buy a new car, do some home renovations and make some investments, as well as travel to Hawaii.
