MOON ALERT: After 7:30 a.m. today there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Pisces.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This might be a restless day for you. Nevertheless, you have options to socialize and have fun — perhaps in the entertainment world, at sporting events or in playful activities with kids. You’re full of different ideas, which might create detours and surprises for you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

This is a lovely day to socialize! However, expect to be surprised by someone, because a friend or a member of a group might do something to catch you off-guard. Alternatively, you might meet a real character or someone you already know might amaze you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Tread carefully around authority figures — parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs and the police — because something unexpected could happen. (“Busted!”) To be on the safe side, give authority figures a wide berth. Meanwhile, relations with relatives, siblings and neighbours are rewarding.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Sudden opportunities to travel might fall into your lap. Alternatively, planned schedules and itineraries might suddenly change at the last minute. If this is a possibility for you, double-check all details to avoid unnecessary disappointments and glitches.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Make friends with your bank account, because something related to shared property, inheritances and mutual resources might be subject to a sudden change. Make sure you know what’s going on. Meanwhile, competition with groups and friends might rev your engines!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Be prepared for something unexpected from a partner, spouse or close friend. (For some, this could relate to a parent or another authority figure.) Basically, something unusual or a bit unordinary might occur. They might make a suggestion that catches you off guard. Be ready.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Equipment breakdowns and technological glitches might impact your work or even your health. Pet owners should be extra-vigilant because something unpredictable could affect their animals. Keep your eyes open. Give yourself extra time so you have wiggle room for the unexpected.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Social plans are unpredictable. You might receive an unexpected invitation? Or a planned event might be cancelled or changed? Meanwhile, romance is full of surprises as well. Parents should be vigilant to avoid accidents with their kids.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Your home routine might be interrupted. Small appliances might break down or a minor outage could occur. Someone unexpected might appear at your door. Take a breath and cope with whatever is happening. It’s nothing you can’t handle.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Take extra precautions, as this is a mildly accident-prone day for you. Be mindful and aware when walking, jogging or driving. On the upside, you might have some clever, genius-like ideas because it’s easy for you to think outside of the box. A little surprise might await you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Do whatever you can to protect your belongings from loss, theft and damage, because this could occur. On the upside, you might find some money. On the downside, you might lose some money. Things are unpredictable when it comes to your assets and resources.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

The moon is in your sign; however, it is at odds with unpredictable Uranus, which might prompt you to jump to hasty conclusions. You might feel rebellious? Certainly, you want to be free to do your own thing. You have a strong craving for excitement and adventure, which means there’s a strong likelihood that’s precisely what you will find!

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Annie Parisse (1975) shares your birthday. You’re energetic, determined and focused. You love to learn, investigate and be involved. Your creativity and zest for life are at a pinnacle this year! Nurture the happiness and beauty you have within. Let your guard down and loosen up a bit. Have fun, but remember your goals.

Gas turbine peaker plants are a mistake

Don Scott 7 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

Technology respecting electricity generation, storage and grid management is rapidly advancing and displacing gas-fired peaker plants. New battery storage systems are more efficient and less costly, smooth grid flow and are non-polluting. Texas, California and Australia are replacing gas turbine peaker plants with more effective storage batteries.

Solar and wind energy generation combined with battery storage at both the grid and home/business level is the most efficient way to meet peak demand. Building expensive, outdated, polluting American gas turbines, as Manitoba Hydro is proposing, is not in Manitoba’s interest.

Premier Wab Kinew noted that a final decision to build a new turbine power plant in Brandon has not been made. I hope he’s correct, for if Manitoba Hydro already made the decision and entered binding financial obligations with GE Vernova, the PUB’s role was superfluous.

In 2025/26 Nova Scotia Power installed 3 x 50 MW Lithium-ion grid batteries with the storage capacity of over 600 MWh. Installed by Kitchener/Waterloo based Canadian Solar’s subsidiary e-Storage who have operations around the world, they accomplished this in less than two years from the approval date in June 2024. Two were operational within 18 months, the third in 24. The cost was $237 million. At Nova Scotia’s cost per MW, a 750 MW battery peaker facility would cost Hydro $1.185 billion, just 40 per cent of the proposed $3 billion gas peaker plant.

Rain causing poor harvest conditions for farmers

Connor McDowell 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

BRANDON — Farmers are dealing with poor harvest conditions owing to the high amount of rain this month.

Brandon had received 74.7 millimetres of rain by Sept. 15, a spokesperson for Environment and Climate Change Canada said Wednesday. The amount is equal to 173 per cent of average rainfall for Brandon.

The wet conditions are causing crop loss and delays in harvesting, several Westman farmers said this week.

“At this point, it (could be) six figures of loss. And that all happens in days,” Cassandra Lepp, a Rivers-area wheat and canola farmer, said. “We have good crops out there, and they are disappearing.”

Federal Court awards OCN $27M, 62 years after construction of hydro dam

Nicole Buffie 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 12:02 PM CDT

The Federal Court has ordered Ottawa pay Opaskwayak Cree Nation $27 million over damages suffered due to the construction of the Grand Rapids hydro dam in the 1960s.

In a decision dated Sept. 3, Federal Court Justice Sébastien Grammond says the federal government had a fiduciary duty to protect the community from the impacts of the dam.

“When the Crown exercises a discretionary power over an Indigenous interest, it has a fiduciary duty and it must exercise the discretion in the best interests of the Indigenous group,” the ruling said. “Canada breached its fiduciary duty to OCN because it approved the (project) without ensuring that the impacts of the Grand Rapids dam on OCN’s traditional way of life were mitigated or compensated.”

The First Nation took the federal government to court in February over impacts on the community after the dam, located about 145 kilometres southeast of Opaskwayak Cree Nation, was installed on the Saskatchewan River in 1964. The case was heard over 14 days in a judge-alone trial in Winnipeg.
