The provincial government is reminding the public to show the people you love how much you care by keeping them safe from COVID-19.
At this time, public health does not recommend sharing of gifts, chocolates or food in schools and at workplaces.
“If you are purchasing a Valentine's Day gift for close friends or loved ones, give only individually-wrapped, unopened store-bought treats or products,” the government said in a news release. “If you're sharing cards, set them aside for 24 hours before handling.
“Planning a date with your special someone? Consider staying in with some take out if you live in the same home. If meeting with individuals outside your household, follow the guidance for restaurants, movies theatres and other venues.”
All guidance regarding gathering sizes inside and outside the home remain in effect.
“Consider hosting a Valentine's Day event online. Call, text or have a virtual date with the ones you love,” the government said.
