Mid-week winner: Someone in Canada just won a $1 million lottery prize
A lucky lottery player in Canada just woke up a millionaire.
The Lotto 6/49 classic and Gold Ball draw took place on Wednesday, March 13.
While no one matched the winning lottery numbers for the $12 million Gold Ball jackpot, there were still some big wins last night.

According toĀ Play Now, someone in Ontario is taking home the $1 million White Ball jackpot after matching the numbers 51, 44, 09, 23, and the bonus number 02.
Unfortunately, lottery players failed to match the winning numbers for the Lotto 6/49 classic draw’s top prize of $5 million, which were 04, 08, 15, 32, 40, 44, and the bonus number 07.
However, one lucky Quebec resident did win the classic draw’s second prize of $197,544.50.
No one matched the winning numbers (14, 23, 31, 59) for the classic draw extra prize of $500,000.
The next Lotto 6/49 draw is on Saturday, March 16, with a Gold Ball jackpot of $14 million.
If you didn’t beat the odds for Wednesday night’s draws, it’s worth checking to see if you’re a lucky lottery winner from Tuesday’s Lotto Max draw.
You can also try your luck in the next Lotto Max draw on Friday. The top prize is now at $15 million.
