This is the new abnormalI’m sure we all have read with concern articles about “new” events we are having to deal with. Very specifically: more in number, and intensity, wildfires and the smoke that comes with them; flooding, as we have seen this summer; the hottest days on record and potential for heat domes; more tornadoes; drought conditions affecting forests, crops, even lowering the water table.

We are also informed to expect these events to happen on a regular basis — every summer!

What I take issue with is the phrase “new normal.” These events are not normal, period. They are abnormal. The word “normal” somehow implies that what is happening is all right; it is OK. That we just have to get used to them.

The use of fossil fuels has directly caused our climate (Earth’s balance) to change, full stop.

‘Very quiet around here’: Duck Mountain biz owners plead for assistance after flooding washes out park

Morgan Modjeski 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 6:38 PM CDT

Business owners at Duck Mountain Provincial Park who have lost thousands in revenue say they’re feeling left out of flood-recovery assistance in the Parkland region.

Dawn Dowsett, owner of Blue Lake Resort, said life has been chaotic since the park closed on June 30 due to road washouts.

While there is limited access to the park, with some seasonal campers and cabin owners returning, it’s listed as closed on the Government of Manitoba’s website, with no nightly camping available until July 23.

She says the resort, which includes a restaurant and store, is missing out on part of the summer, a peak time for the business.

Ottawa mum on joining legal case against Trump’s sanctioning of Canadian ICC judge

Dylan Robertson, The Canadian Press 4 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 9:54 AM CDT

OTTAWA - Ottawa won't say whether it will intervene in support of a Winnipeg-born global judge who is asking a U.S. court to reverse sanctions ordered by U.S. President Donald Trump, which have left her unable to use a credit card or most major online vendors.

Washington sanctioned International Criminal Court judge Kimberly Prost nearly a year ago, over her work on a case involving American troops in Afghanistan. Unlike France, Canada has never criticized that decision.

"We haven't said anything about that," said Sabine Nolke, a former senior Canadian diplomat whose career focused on international law.

"We do have fairly solid human rights credentials, but we can certainly stand (to be) speaking out more about them."

Kinew vows to speed up 12-month timeline to revive Dauphin hospital

Carol Sanders 5 minute read Friday, Jul. 10, 2026

Premier Wab Kinew said he was told Dauphin’s hospital may not be able to reopen for a year after floodwater got into the basement and damaged the building, including its HVAC system.

He called that “unacceptable.”

“We are going to throw a ton of resources and time and energy towards accelerating that as much as possible,” he told reporters at a briefing at the Manitoba legislature Friday.

The Dauphin Regional Health Centre sustained significant damage as a result of recent intense flooding in the Parkland region following massive rainfall. The medical hub was evacuated on Canada Day and its emergency department was closed after the site lost power and the use of its heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system.

Province has ‘serious concerns’ with Winnipeg personal care home

Tyler Searle 5 minute read Friday, Jul. 10, 2026

The Manitoba government has placed licensing conditions on a Winnipeg personal care home after an inspection uncovered “serious concerns” related to the safety of senior residents.

Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara confirmed the province issued the order against the Extendicare Heritage Lodge — an 86-bed nursing home at 3555 Portage Ave. — effective June 9.

“This is an important oversight tool, and it is not used lightly. Conditions are imposed when there are serious concerns that require enhanced oversight and clear, corrective action,” Asagwara said in a statement.

“Our expectation is simple: Extendicare must meet the standards Manitoba seniors and families deserve. We will continue working with the (Winnipeg Regional Health Authority) to monitor this facility closely and ensure the required improvements are made.”

Marla Somersall devoted her life to people in need

Zoe Pierce 5 minute read Yesterday at 6:00 AM CDT

Whether it was helping women build businesses in rural Tunisia, leading homeless and addiction support organizations or delivering meals to vulnerable Manitobans, Marla Somersall spent her life dedicated to lessening other people’s suffering.

Over a career that took her from North Africa to Prince Edward Island and back to Manitoba, Somersall held leadership roles in a range of social service and non-profit organizations, always drawn to work that centred on supporting people in need.

Most recently, she served as executive director of Meals on Wheels Winnipeg — a non-profit organization that provides meals to people who are unable to prepare them for themselves.

Kelly Scrivener, client co-ordinator with Meals on Wheels, said Somersall was a very calm and respectful person who led with gentle direction and fostered a collaborative workplace.
