PETERBOROUGH-Bradley V. of Peterborough can “find his possible” after winning a LOTTO 6/49 prize worth $12 million in the Gold Ball Draw on June 6, 2026
Bradley, a financial planner, was checking his emails one Sunday morning when he noticed a message from OLG.
“I logged into my OLG.ca account to investigate further and thought there had to be a mistake,” he shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect his big cheque. “I put on my reading glasses and checked the information again. Eventually, I realized it was legitimate and the win was real. I was in disbelief and couldn’t focus for the rest of the day.”
The 47-year-old father of three shared the exciting news with his children by showing them screenshots of his winning ticket. “Their mouths dropped open in shock. They were completely speechless.”
“I also told my mother,” Bradley added with a smile. “She was overwhelmed by the news and said, ‘I have to pinch myself — I must still be dreaming!’”
Bradley said this win will make life easier going forward. He plans to continue working and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with this life-changing windfall. “I hope to retire a little earlier than planned so I can spend more time enjoying life with my family,” he beamed.
With his windfall, Bradley will support his family. Also at the top of his wish list is a new vehicle — possibly an Audi or a BMW.
The winning ticket was purchased on OLG.ca.
