10-Nov-06. Lottery security tightened after insider jackpots. Globe and Mail, A10.

Duncan Brown, chief executive officer of the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp (OLGC) yesterday apologized to customers and promised to implement new security measures to guard against fraud. The OLGC said it will install devices at every ticket outlet that will allow customers to check their own tickets and determine instantly the value of their prize. The move comes two weeks after a CBC television program alleged that more than 200 ticket retailers or clerks have won prizes of more than $50,000 in the past seven years.
