30-Dec-06. Investigation of store owners delays $1M Ont. lottery prize for 6 weeks. Edmonton Journal, B10.
An Ontario couple from Fenelon Falls who co-own a store from which their winning lottery ticket was purchased had to wait for six weeks to claim their prize. A recent investigation by the CBC’s The Fifth Estate found lottery retailers were winning prizes at a statistically impossible rate and it prompted an investigation by Ontario’s ombudsman.
