TORONTO, ON – Angeline Desbiens of Echo Bay is $100,000 richer after winning with INSTANT CROSSWORD TRIPLER (Game #2135).

Angeline used the OLG Lottery App to check her ticket. “My friend was jumping, cheering and hugging me! It was a nice night,” shared Angeline, 86, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her cheque.

The mother of six called her children as soon as she discovered the news about her big win. “They are happy for me. They told me I deserve this,” Angeline smiled.

Angeline plans to share her windfall with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. “I will also find a way to treat myself after this pandemic is over,” she concluded.

The OLG Prize Centre in Toronto has resumed in-person prize claims for winning-ticket holders of $50,000 or more by-appointment only. To best protect customers and staff, OLG has put in place appropriate health and safety protocols in accordance with guidelines from public health officials, which include physical distancing measures, the mandatory use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and the pre-screening of visitors before granting entry.
