Weitz claimed the last top prize of all the Triple Millions tickets in Ontario in 2021. The jackpot makes Weitz the Windsor-Essex region’s biggest lottery winner so far this year. Obviously thrilled, Weitz said he plans on investing his winnings. “We started celebrating together! The other customers were jumping up and down!”
“I went back into the store and the clerk’s eyes went wide,” Weitz said. Weitz told OLG staff he had to re-count the zeroes in the matching amounts he found. Weitz scratched his ticket while sitting in his truck after buying the gicket at MS Lakeshore Convenience on County Road 22 in the Emeryville area.
