Million dollar winning lotto ticket sold in Alberta

Aug 30, 2018 | 9:09 AM

There’s a new lottery millionaire in Alberta.

Western Canada Lottery Corporation officials say a ticket sold in the province won $1 million on last night’s (Aug. 29) LOTTO 6/49 Guaranteed Prize Draw.

The winning ticket was sold somewhere in the province – but not in either Edmonton or Calgary.

The winning selection was 34630409-02.

The winner or winners of the prize have a year from the draw date to claim the prize. But we hope to hear from them sooner than that,” WCLC says in a media release.

The winner(s) can contact WCLC Customer Care at 1-800-665-3313 for information on how to start the prize claim.

There are more big jackpots on the way. Friday’s LOTTO MAX jackpot is an estimated $33 million.
