Justin Bieber has fans asking “What do you mean?” after a cryptic website update suggests a tour announcement could be coming.

Over the weekend, the tour section of the Canadian pop star’s site was quietly refreshed noting no current shows and prompting fans to RSVP “to be notified when new tour dates are announced.”

Bieber returned to the Coachella stage on Saturday for his second headlining set, bringing out special guests including SZA and even pulling Billie Eilish onstage to be serenaded during “One Less Lonely Girl.”

The singer ended his performance telling the audience “I’ll see y’all soon,” further fueling speculation that he could be hitting the road.

Bieber cancelled his last tour in 2022 in order to deal with the health effects of his Ramsay Hunt syndrome diagnosis. At the time, the “Daisies” singer shared an Instagram video showing how the condition left half of his face temporarily paralyzed. 

During a Twitch stream last fall, the singer said the idea of touring at this point in his life “sounds super daunting” and that he was focused on Coachella, which marked his biggest live performances since canceling his tour.

“I always start out really loving it, and then it always gets to a point where I’m just super burned out,” Bieber said.

He added that wants to be more selective about the performances he does from now on.

“And so, like, I think at this point in my life, I really want to do spot dates, where I just pick maybe a city and do a couple shows, and not commit to a whole two-year run; That’s usually what it is, is like, for a year and a half, two years,” he said.

Bieber returned to the stage at February’s Grammy Awards for a stripped-down performance of his single “Yukon,” off his 2025 album “Swag,” which got four nods.

His Coachella performances this month have been generally well received. 

Following his career-spanning set on April 11, the pop star saw a massive steaming surge, reaching No. 1 on Spotify’s global top artist chart and sending 21 of his songs into the streaming platform’s global top 200.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published April 20, 2026.

Banning gambling ads

Re: Sweeney’s sexist U.S. gambling-site ad isn’t the real problem, Sept. 16

I applaud Dan Lett’s opinion piece regarding online gambling.

Reporting of increasing social issues due to the proliferation of gambling addictions has been thin. Online gambling (not just sports gambling) is super-charging this serious and growing problem.

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I’m 30, and recently met a girl eight years younger than I am. While we had a great time the first weeks going out for dinners, to the bar and back to my place to make love, she’s now thrown up a big wall!

She left very early in the morning yesterday. I yelled that I wanted to see her again real soon, as she went out the door. But she hasn’t replied to my texts or phone calls since! I’ve reached out, four or five times. I feel like I’m doing something wrong, but I can’t help feeling a lot for her! What should I do?

— Longing for More, River Heights

Dear Longing: Stop trying to reconnect now. By not replying, she’s telling you she’s not interested. You don’t need more of this rejection pain in your life, and you don’t need all this uncertainty and obsessing.

The artificial intelligence boom is inducing panic about the makeup of Manitoba’s future workforce and influencing new post-secondary application trends.

What remains a constant, says the economist who oversees the University of Manitoba, is the often-overlooked value of a liberal arts degree.

“I’ve always believed in it being a foundation for lifelong learning,” said Michael Benarroch, president and vice-chancellor of the largest post-secondary institute in the province.

“Even more so, in a world of AI, where AI is going to do certain tasks, I think humanities education and social sciences education is going to become even more important.”

Manitoba budget reveals province underspent on crucial departments related to justice, public safety

Carol Sanders 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

While concerns about homelessness and public safety continue to make headlines in Manitoba, the two government departments mainly responsible for addressing them came in under budget last year.

The 2025-26 public accounts, released Monday, show Housing, Addictions and Homelessness underspent its budget of $869 million by $18 million. Manitoba Justice underspent its budget of $994 million by $34 million.

The 247-page public accounts report attributes the underspending in justice mainly to “reduced impacts of contingency liabilities,” such as a court ruling or legal settlement.

The report did not explain how and why Housing, Addictions and Homelessness underspent its budget last year as the province addresses those critical issues.
