A Lotto 6/49 ticket purchased in Parksville has matched all six numbers along with a ticket purchased in Newfoundland and Labrador to split the $6 million jackpot (for $3 million each) in last night’s draw.

The six winning numbers were 13, 15, 17, 25, 34 and 45.

All lottery prize winners have 52 weeks from the draw date printed on their ticket to come forward to claim their prize. The specific retail location where the winning lottery ticket was purchased, and the lottery winners’ name(s) will be announced after the winner has come forward to claim their prize.
