One Metro Vancouver resident will have a lot more cash available the next time he dips into his bank account.

Colin C. recently won $101,202 in the Sept. 23, 2026 Lotto 6/49 draw.

He says he scanned his ticket three times to make sure the prize was real.

“I woke up, got ready, decided to scan the ticket — and wow,” Colin C. says in a press release. “I didn’t believe it. I had to check it two more times.”

To make sure he wasn’t daydreaming, the Coquitlam resident went online to check the winning numbers and the city where the winning ticket was bought.

“Then I knew,” he says.

Colin C. says he’s elated about the win. “That sums it up! It’s wonderful, I am extremely grateful.”

A Triple Dip ticket is a combination purchase that includes Lotto 6/49, BC/49 and the Extra.
