NEW YORK – A second publisher plans to release the Impeachment Report in book form, and this edition will feature a defence of President Donald Trump.

Skyhorse announced Tuesday that “The Impeachment Report: The House Intelligence Committee’s Report on the Trump-Ukraine Investigation, with House Republicans’ Rebuttal” will come out Dec. 24. The book will include an introduction by attorney Alan Dershowitz, a leading critic of the efforts to remove from Trump from office over his alleged efforts to pressure Ukraine into helping his re-election campaign.

Last week, Random House announced that it was publishing an edition of the report, featuring an introduction by the Pulitzer Prize winning historian Jon Meacham.

Because government releases are not copyrighted, anyone can issue the impeachment report. A handful of self-published editions are already being offered on Amazon.com.

Skyhorse was among several publishers who released bestselling versions of “The Mueller Report.”

Powerful allegory, magic wonder as ballet takes on Stravinsky

Holly Harris 5 minute read 6:50 PM CDT

The Royal Winnipeg Ballet opened its mainstage season with fire and ice Thursday, as it paid homage to Russian composer Igor Stravinsky with Stravinsky Stories.

Local balletomanes may remember Alexei Ratmansky as a principal dancer during the early 1990s. The internationally renowned dance artist returns in a full-circle moment to stage The Fairy’s Kiss, the 50-minute work his first collaboration with the RWB in more than 30 years. He began flexing his choreographic muscles in its downtown studios with an earlier, reimagined incarnation in 1994, based on Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale The Ice Maiden, in turn set to Stravinsky’s own tribute to Tchaikovsky’s lushly romantic ballet scores.

Its narrative follows the journey of a Young Man (newly minted principal dancer Skylar Campbell, with all leads alternating) saved — and kissed — by a Fairy (principal dancer Elizabeth Lamont, who rips off a dizzying set of “fouettes”) after his Mother (former principal dancer Vanessa Léonard adding her own gravitas) perishes in a blizzard.

After falling in love with his fiancée (principal dancer Alanna McAdie, infusing her character with innocent youthfulness grounded by intricate footwork), he is tricked on his wedding day by the now disguised Fairy who reveals her true identity — and his ultimate destiny.

The New York Islanders are first-overall. The Calgary Flames are in the league basement.

We’re talking about goaltending, specifically the metric of “goals against above expected” as tracked by the Money Puck website which factors in shot quality and location and is a much better measure than traditional numbers such as goals-against-average and even save percentage, which can be heavily influenced by team factors.

In a nutshell, you want to be as high as possible on this list, suggesting your masked men are doing their job by stopping everything they should — and hopefully a few more. The lower you are in the 32-team league, the more likely you have a leaky crease.

Longtime voice of the Blue and Gold marks major milestone

David Sanderson 8 minute read 12:52 PM CDT

Bob McGregor made his debut as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers’ public-address announcer on June 7, 1997, during a pre-season game at Winnipeg Stadium between the hometown Blue Bombers and their western rivals, the Calgary Stampeders.

McGregor will be behind the microphone again this Saturday, detailing the action on the field in addition to leading a boisterous Princess Auto Stadium crowd through what has become his signature call, “And that is another Winnipeg Blue Bombers first down!”

The Bombers’ final home date of the 2026 regular season will mark a major milestone for McGregor, and the former newscaster feels it’s only fitting the same two teams as 10,717 days ago — the Bombers and Stampeders — will be the ones butting helmets.

“I knew at the start of the season I was closing in on 300 games as the PA guy, only it wasn’t until I went through the schedule that I realized my 300th would be Winnipeg-Calgary, which struck me as kind of cool,” McGregor says, seated in a St. James breakfast nook, dressed in dark trousers and a blue-and-gold Blue Bombers golf shirt.

A Rocky day on the mayoral campaign trail for Kevin Klein

Malak Abas 12 minute read 12:00 PM CDT

Kevin Klein acknowledges it’s hard to foresee what he’ll wake up to each morning in the final weeks of a mayoral campaign.

But the seasoned politician, who has served as both a city councillor and a provincial cabinet minister, couldn’t have predicted the events — what he describes as “drama” — that unfolded last Sunday.

Fellow mayoral candidate Mike Vogiatzakis accused Klein’s campaign team of offering him a job to drop out of the race, while a guest writer’s column in the Winnipeg Sun that questioned the deaths of Indigenous children at residential schools, just days after the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, sparked condemnation from a prominent Indigenous organization. (Klein is the CEO of the Klein Group, the company that owns the Sun. He has maintained he is not involved in its operations while running for mayor.)

The Free Press had already been scheduled to join Klein on the campaign trail Monday, intending to document a day in the life of the front-running candidate to unseat incumbent Scott Gillingham, before the controversies hit.

Sharp script worthy of legendary large-nosed lead at Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre’s Cyrano de Bergerac

Cyrano de Bergerac can pick his nose, but he didn’t get to choose it.

Even if given the option of rhinoplasty, would the dashing, witty and macro-schnozzed 17th-century Frenchman (played with ardent panache by Jack Davidson) go under the knife? How about you?

Regardless of his preference that his work — his rapier wit, his legendary bravery and his mastery of swordplay — should earn him renown, it’s a bulbous bit of extra cartilage that obscures his inherent qualities.

For Cyrano de Bergerac, it’s not only a chip on the shoulder that shapes his self-perception and thus his erratic and entertaining behaviours, the nose is the leading sentence to a timeless underdog story written in playwright Jessy Ardern’s indelible ink.

Canadian author Anne Carson wins literature Nobel for ‘bold and inventive’ works that blend genres

Jill Lawless, Hillel Italie And Kostya Manenkov, The Associated Press 6 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 5:05 PM CDT

STOCKHOLM (AP) — Canadian poet, essayist and translator Anne Carson won the Nobel Prize in literature Thursday for “bold and inventive” works that fuse the classical and the modern and blur the boundaries of poetry and prose.

The Toronto-born Carson, 76, has drawn on themes from classical Greek and Roman literature, modern influences and personal experience for genre-blending titles that have ranged from translations of ancient Greek poets to collaborations with dancers and musicians, including Laurie Anderson and Lou Reed.

The Swedish Academy that awards the prize said she won “for her bold and inventive oeuvre that, in playful dialogue with the classical tradition, has created new forms for contemporary literature.”

The permanent secretary of the academy said the author was in Iceland “listening to the wind” when the panel reached her to notify her of the honor.
