Quebec Family wins $50 million just before Christmas, now plans to buy a farm

What's the best way to celebrate Christmas? By winning $50,000,000, of course. A family from Quebec's Laurentides region snagged the golden ticket for the Lotto Max jackpot in the Dec. 15 draw. Nancy Gauthier, her mother Jeannette Boisvert and her mother's partner Gilles Larouche are the lucky winners. "I swear I was shaking," Gauthier said of the surreal moment when she learned they were multi-millionaires. Gauthier bought the ticket at her mother's urging and when she went to check the results online, only to discover six of their numbers matched those in the draw. She looked down at the seventh final number and then back at the website. That's when Gauthier fell to her knees and screamed. Her mother was beside her when Gauthier said, "I got them all." "It was insane," Gauthier said Thursday during a Loto-Québec news conference, adding her mom made her check the numbers over several times. Global's Felicia Parrillo has more.
