An amazing start to 2019 for a Thorold couple who has won $2 million in the lottery.
John McGean and Shelly Maiuk struck it rich in the January 5th Ontario 49 draw.
This isn't the first time 54 year old McGean has been lucky with the lotto, he won $100,000 with an Instant ticket a few years ago.
Maiuk, a 56-year-old server says they were in shock when they learned the news.
The parents of one and grandparents of two plan to pay off their mortgage, purchase new vehicles and help their son.
“We’ll also take some time to travel and renovate the house,” smiled McGean.
The winning ticket was purchased at Richmond Supermarket on Richmond Street in Thorold.
