27-Oct-06. Ontario’s ombudsman launches lottery probe. National Post, A3.

Ontario’s ombudsman has launched an independent probe into how the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation protects the public from theft or fraud related to winning lottery tickets and how it responds to potential theft or fraud involving winnings. The announcement comes one day after the CBC’s Fifth Estate alleged an unusually high number of inside winners, such as ticket retailers or clerks, have won major prizes over the past seven years.
