Are you sitting on a million-dollar winner?

Someone in Windsor-Essex became a millionaire this week and may not even know it.

Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) announced Thursday that a Guaranteed Million-Dollar Prize was sold in Windsor-Essex for Wednesday night's Lotto 6/49 draw, making someone's Canada Day week a little bit brighter.

The Guaranteed Million-Dollar Prize is drawn with every Lotto 6/49 ticket. Additional prizes are attached to the million-dollar draw on Wednesdays as part of a summer promotion from the OLG.

If you think you have the winner, contact OLG immediately for instructions on how to make a claim.

Other big winners from the Wednesday draw include a $15.7 million jackpot winner in Ottawa, two second-prizes of almost $121,000 each sold in Owen Sound and Belleville, a million-dollar Encore winner in London, and two $100,000 Encore prizes sold in Toronto and the Newmarket area.
