Valentine’s Day Lottery Surprise: Canada Player Wins $1 Million, $55M Jackpot Ahead

Written by Published

Valentine’s Day turned into a lucky surprise for one lottery player in Canada—and the winnings were nothing short of exciting.

On Saturday, February 14, the Lotto 6/49 draw featured a massive $30 million Gold Ball jackpot. While no one claimed the top prize, one lucky player still walked away with $1 million after matching the White Ball number 76235387-01. According to PlayNow, the winning ticket was sold in Quebec.


🎯 More Big Wins from the Same Draw

Even though the $5 million Classic Draw prize wasn’t won, several players still had reason to celebrate:

  • 💵 Two winners matched five numbers plus the bonus
    → Each earned $123,977.60
    → Tickets sold in Ontario and Alberta

  • 👥 94 players shared the third prize
    → Each received $1,107.60

  • 🎁 20 Guaranteed $50,000 prizes were also awarded

    • 6 in British Columbia

    • 1 in Alberta

    • 8 in Ontario

    • 5 in Quebec


❌ No Extra or Encore Winners This Time

Some bonus prizes remained unclaimed:

  • No $500,000 Classic Draw Extra winner in British Columbia

  • No $1 million Encore winner in Ontario

So while many players won, a few big bonuses are still waiting to be claimed in future draws.

The Lotto Max draw on Friday, February 13 came with winning numbers:

03, 13, 26, 36, 41, 42, 43

But once again, no one matched all the numbers to win the $50 million jackpot or the $220,061.60 second prize.
