A lucky lottery winner from Ontario plans to use her prize to go to “the happiest place on Earth.”
Camlachie resident Kerry-Anne Hudgins won a $1 million top prize with Instant Millionaire Multiplier.
The welding inspector is an occasional lottery player with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) and only picks up Instant tickets around the holidays.

The festive season blessed the mother of two with a Millionaire Multiplier ticket that led to her first big win.
“I knew I’d won the top prize as soon as I was done playing my ticket,” Hudgins said while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her winnings.
“I was pretty excited and may have used a few choice words as I wrapped my head around the reality of winning $1 million,” she laughed.
She said her friends and family were in disbelief when they heard the amazing news.
“I shared the good news with my friends and family, and no one believed me at first,” Hudgins smiled. “I understood their reaction—it was still surreal to me!”
She has some important plans with her lottery windfall.
“I’m going to visit all the Disney theme parks and join the mortgage-free club!”
The winning lottery ticket was purchased at Circle K on Indian Road South in Sarnia.
