VANCOUVER — Lisa-Marie Draganiuk of Delta, B.C., is Canada’s latest multi-millionaire after winning $12.5 million in the June 5 Lotto Max draw.

Her ticket is one of four winners in the $50 million draw, which each entitled to $12.5 million.

The 33-year-old dental hygienist said her reaction was “complete delirium” and was in shock when she checked her ticket on the way home from work on Wednesday.

Draganiuk said her family will soon be house hunting and that her mother will never have to return to her job.

She said her mother had done so much for her and is “really looking forward to returning the favour.”

The winning ticket was purchased at Shoppers Drug Mart in Delta, B.C.
