“We were going to our daughter’s hockey game, and my wife said, ‘We should go check our tickets, we could be the big winners,’” Ouellette said.

“We were joking about what we would do if we won.”

Ouellette plans to take his family to Walt Disney World. He also plans to pay some bills and pay his mortgage off.

Ouellette bought the winning ticket at the Superstore gas bar on Prince of Wales Drive.
