A lucky Plumber from Ontario won a whopping sum of $1 million by matching all seven Encore numbers in exact order in the Nov. 12 Lotto 6/49 draw.

The winning ticket was sold at Ilderton Food Market on Ilderton Rd. in Ilderton, north of London. The store will receive a bonus of $10,000 for selling the winning ticket. 

Pickles said he plays the lottery weekly and this ticket was a regular purchase for him.

The winner plans of paying off his mortgage and some bills with his payday.

Lotto 6/49 is one of three national lottery games in Canada. Lotto 6/49 led to the gradual phase-out of that type of lottery game in Canada.

Winning numbers are drawn by the Interprovincial Lottery Corporation (ILC) every Wednesday and Saturday, executed with a random number generator.
