Montréal, December 12, 2022 – André Roy took home a Maximillions prize, i.e., $1 million, in the October 21 Lotto Max draw.
Fun fact: Shortly before finding out he had won, the Estrie resident had imagined that he would win a grand prize! He asked himself, “What would I do if I won a million?” He didn’t have to wait long for an answer. M. Roy now plans to buy his dream car and travel to Saint-Martin, and maybe also to Mexico, together with his children and grandchildren.
The winning ticket was purchased at Boni-Soir, on Chemin d’Adamsville in Bromont. The retailer will receive a 1% commission of $10,000.
