Finally OLG figured out who the winner of their 50 million prize on the 31 of December last year. Two groups from bell Canada have decided to split it among them. They are going to have to split the money 30 ways equally. 19 of the 30 split 32 million today, and 11 split the left over 18 million later. The manager of the first group of 19 won the lottery with one ticket that he bought in Scarborough.
This lottery has been a mess ever since they declared a winner on 31 of December. The winner didn't declare himself until Jan 3rd on one of the OLG's biggest lottery prizes. It wasn't until over a month later that they were finally able to figure out how the money will be split and how the winner will get paid. Even though this was a mess of a lottery I'm glad they split the money fairly. I'm glad the winner just didn't try to take the money and leave everyone else without any. This makes you feel a lot better about the whole situation because everyone was able to get an equal amount of the prize not just one person.
