Some guys have all the luck.

There is good reason for the long delay. Canada has had a very public problem with cheating and coruptiuon in our lotto. They have put in place some draconian measures to make sure it doesn't continue to take place but I'm sure it still is. The problem was with retailers cashing in on their customers prizes. You used to be able to turn the sound off on the lotto machines and there was no strict policy in place that said you HAD to give the validation slip back to the customer. Now you have to jump through a lot of hoops in order to be able to sell lottery tickets. They do extensive background checks, take copies of ALL your ID, you have to give them your last 5 years worth of addresses, send then passport photos and more. I know this cause I managed a store that sold tickets for some months (no I did not cash in on anyones winnings). I'm sure there are still others out there cheating though.

And I mean come on I know it's harassment but you won 5 jackpots in 5 years! It may be statistically possible but that would look fishy to anyone. Some investigation is a good thing. Besides if you are legit you have 17 milllion+ fucking dollars!!!
 
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain waaaa ohh ohhh ah ah oohhhhh
 
How do you feel bad for someone who has won the Lotto 5 times for more than 18 million dollars? How much mental anguish can he possibly have?
 
I know a guy that hit the "$1,000 a week for life" twice. They were several years apart though.
Just last summer he hit for ~20K on some lottery too.

So he banks 2 Grand a week tax free? Phew...must be awesome. Is he actually saving the money or spending like there's no tomorrow?
 
Ever read the disclaimer about winners on lotteries? You are required to be on the media. I'd say the glory ends right there.
