The entire air passenger protection regime in this country is broken, and nobody — not the airlines and not the federal government — seem to be able to do anything about it.

We’re halfway through the 10-week summer holiday and if your family is anything like mine, it’s very likely you’ll be in full-blown survival mode at this point.
You’ve already visited all the popular ice-cream spots in the city (and if you haven’t then you’ll find a list of our faves here) , you’ve ticked every box in our Road Trip Bingo Card and answered every single question in the our How Well Do You Know Your Province Quiz (Part 1 and Part 2) … and there are still 29 days to go before school starts on Sept. 8.
If you’re running low on ideas, don’t worry — we’ve got you covered, with not one, not two, but three cycling/walking routes to help you squeeze a bit more fun from what’s left of the holidays. Grab your helmets, lace up your sneakers, pack water bottles and get outside to explore different neighbourhoods in the city.
NOTE: Check the Winnipeg Trails website before you leaving to make sure paths are open and in working order, especially if we’ve had a bout of nasty weather.
MOON ALERT: After 4 a.m. there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Leo.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Many social possibilities might randomly occur, which makes this a wonderful day to get out and schmooze with everyone. Love at first sight might begin. Fun outings related to sports, playful activities with kids and the arts will delight and please you.

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I kind of lost it recently with the hot weather and all the sweating, so I had my barber buddy completely shave off my thick head of hair.
Right away, I loved the cool feeling and thought it really looked good with my silver earring.
But when I came home that evening with my new look, my wife said it looked terrible and freaked her out.
Then she really went too far and said I’m now “all nose, with beady little eyes and a big mouth.” I had no idea she didn’t like my face anymore. I’ve never been considered an ugly man, but is that how my wife sees me now? At least other women don’t think so.
A former private school teacher convicted of sexual assault against several students has denied he abused the Manitoba man who’s now suing him over different claims of sexual violence.
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: Being stuck in the hot city while my wife and kids were enjoying the lake made me feel so alone. I felt sorry for myself. I thought I deserved some kind of reward, and it showed up in the shape of a new woman joining our office last month.
What a character. She was assigned to my department and was so full of new ideas — an injection of pure energy. She’s not beautiful, but her amazing smile lights me up. I’ve had a crush on her since Day 1.
Although I’m older than her and married, I’m alive and sexual.
But when we finally got to talking about sex last week, this woman dropped a big bombshell. She told me she’s bisexual and has a female partner coming to Winnipeg to live with her. What a shock.
