A Greater Toronto area woman has 22 million reasons to smile today.
According to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Association, Vivian Leung of Richmond Hill struck it rich after winning the $22.6 million Lotto Max jackpot June 17.
Leung, who rarely plays the lottery, said she just happened to have a free ticket and decided to play it on a whim.
“I really didn’t notice the big jackpot amount,” said Leung. “I just knew I had a free ticket to play and I finally found some time last week to cash it in. I just chose a Quick Pick as usual, and this is the ticket that won!”
Leung said it wasn’t until the cashier told her how much she’d won that she realized how significant the cash prize was.
“When she told me $22 million, my face got red and I got a headache. I was so stunned.”
Leung said the first thing she’ll spend her new-found money on is a home for her 84-year-old father, somewhere in Toronto so he can be closer to where she lives.
She may also want to spend some of her earnings on a Toronto storage unit, as she’ll likely want to purchase some new furnishings for her home and move out the old ones.

As the current state of our world continues to evolve in response to the COVID – 19 Pandemic, Jiffy Self-Storage is taking every precaution necessary to do our part in the fight against it. As we are sure most of you are aware, the Government of Ontario is ordering the closure of all non-essential businesses effective Wednesday March 25th 2020.

Despite the closing of our offices, to conform to City directives, we are very well set up to book a unit for you over the phone Without any in-person interaction. Self-Storage has few common areas and we sanitize surfaces regularly.

Please do not come if you feel sick in any way.
Our staff has been and will continue to Sanitize commonly contacted surfaces several times a day. Remember to perform Social Distancing should you meet someone in a hallway if you come to access your unit. This includes no hand shaking and keeping at least 2 meters from one another. Jiffy Self-Storage will maintain our cleaning staff’s hours and storage managers will maintain a presence on the premises to ensure the facility is safe and secure.
Access to the building and premises for current tenants will continue unimpeded, (7 days a week from 7am to 10pm) However, our Office will be closed to the Public for the duration of the Citywide mandatory closure.
