Exhibition examines the bonds we make with humanoid objects

Jen Zoratti 8 minute read 6:27 PM CDT

For the past few years, Winnipeg visual artist Emilie St-Hilaire has been fascinated by the way humans relate to artificial bodies — dolls, robots, mannequins — through play, care and connection, and how those synthetic relationships can produce very real emotions in humans.

Objects of Fidelity: Barbies, bots, bébés, her solo exhibition on view now at La Maison des artistes visuels francophones, explores this space between object and companion. It’s what she calls the “visual culmination” of work that began with her 2024 PhD dissertation at Concordia University in Montreal, which examined Reborn Dolls — hyper-realistic art dolls that resemble newborns — from a feminist perspective.

But when a robot included in the exhibition started malfunctioning and giving signs that it was at the end of its life, St-Hilaire was given a new question to puzzle: what does it mean for a robot, or any other artificial body, to “die”?

To understand that, one must first understand how these human attachments to humanlike objects form in the first place.

‘Dynacare sucks’: premier muses about bringing lab services back into public system

Carol Sanders 5 minute read Wednesday, Sep. 9, 2026

Premier Wab Kinew says Manitoba may bring Dynacare’s diagnostic lab services back into the public system rather than continue to sign contracts with the for-profit company.

“Dynacare sucks. They’ve made an absolute mess of this situation,” the premier said Wednesday, the day the company’s 350 employees reported back to work after the labour board halted their strike after just one day.

Kinew first made the remark about Dynacare in a CBC radio interview Wednesday morning and added he is “not happy with them.”

Dynacare performs the majority of non-emergency blood and urine tests in the province.

AI poses threat to Indigenous culture, knowledge, creativity

Niigaan Sinclair 5 minute read 5:23 PM CDT

It’s the beginning of the school year and the now-annual conversation every teacher and professor has to have with students about the ethics of using artificial intelligence.

It used to be that computers were a tool primarily used to express an individual’s creativity, critical thought and support their research.

Nowadays, and especially since the invention of the internet, computers come with AI programs that instantly summarize vast amounts of data, create content and images, and even write 10-page essays based on information found on sites from across the world.

This is why AI, whether people like it or not, is basically theft – or the action of using someone else’s ideas and creations without the consent of the original creator.

DAZN hires former Bombers QB Streveler as CFL, NFL analyst

As soon as Chris Streveler tore his ACL, he basically knew his gridiron career was over.

Last October, when the Winnipeg Blue Bombers hosted the Montreal Alouettes in the regular-season finale, the quarterback went down with a non-contact injury just minutes into the game.

Streveler had torn three of the four major ligaments in that same left knee during the 2024 Banjo Bowl and worked tirelessly to make it back for the 2025 season.

This time, however, a path to a return wasn’t going to be viable.

Kenneth Womack never doubted this day would come.

For all of the twists and turns along this journey, Womack believed in himself and the work he’s been putting in on the road to becoming a professional football player.

So, as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers receiver gets set to make his CFL on Saturday afternoon against the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the Banjo Bowl, you can be sure he’s going to take a moment to savour the experience while doing his best to make it feel like any other game he’s played previously.

“Once I run out the tunnel, it’s all going to sink in,” Womack said after Friday’s walkthrough.
