Imocanin said he thought he’d won a smaller prize at first.
“When I realized I had won, I jumped up!” he said in a statement.
Imocanin said he already has some plans for his new wealth.
“I will be paying off some debt,” he said. “I will also need a new truck to get back and forth to work.”
In addition to taking care of debts and transportation, Imocanin said he has a family member who is seriously ill and that he plans to use some of his winnings to support their treatment.
“This couldn’t have come at a better time,” he said.
Vault Breaker is a progressive jackpot that links 4,200 VLTs at more than 550 locations across Saskatchewan.
Since June of 2017, the jackpot has paid out more than $68.8 million to 69 separate winners, the lottery corporation added.
