Doug MacLellan of Riverview has won more than $119,000 after buying an online lottery ticket.
He got a notification from alc.ca and was cautious at first saying he couldn’t believe it adding it was a really long number.
The Lotto 6/49 ticket was purchased on his phone just before he went to bed on Wednesday night.

MacLellan plans to share his prize with his friend and co-worker Kevin Smith of Moncton who he plays the lottery with.
As for Doug’s reaction to the win, Smith says he was shaking so he was pretty sure it was real.
Smith is in the process of building a new house and hope the winnings will make it into his dream home while MacLellan says he’ll use the money to support his two daughters with their studies and figure skating fees.
