MOON ALERT: After 3 a.m. there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The moon is in Cancer.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Tread carefully when talking to family members, especially female relatives, as well as partners, spouses and close friends, because confusion is rampant. It’s easy to misunderstand someone. It’s also easy to innocently mislead people. Yes, it’s that kind of day.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

When talking to others about work, health or a pet, be extra-clear in your communications, because Neptune can create confusion in conversations. Family discussions, especially about home repairs, might take place. Keep things clear!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a poor day to make financial decisions because the moon is in your money house, and it is at odds with both Venus and Neptune. If you feel tempted to buy something luxurious, beautiful or artistic — clothing, jewelry or art objects — think twice! Wait until tomorrow.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

If you’re talking to parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs or the police, take extra care to clarify what you mean. Furthermore, make sure you know what they require of you or what they are saying. This is because confusion and misinterpretations are likely — especially with authority figures.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a tricky day because the sun, Jupiter and chatty Mercury are all in your sign, which means you’re eager to communicate with others. However, something going on behind the scenes, and possibly something you’re not aware of, could create misunderstandings. Be careful about what you say.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Because there’s a strong possibility for confusion about financial transactions and discussions about money and shared property, you might be wise to delay these exchanges until tomorrow. You can’t believe everything you hear because you might also misinterpret something.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You love beautiful things and harmonious relationships. These are good reasons to be careful when shopping, because you might go overboard buying something you will later regret. Likewise, discussions with authority figures and friends might be confusing.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Don’t overreact if you think you’re dealing with a passive-aggressive situation with someone. Confused communications are happening everywhere. For the most part, it may be innocent enough due to misinformation or scant details. Stay cool.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Discussions with friends, groups or kids might require money, funding or use of someone else’s property. If so, be careful to get permission and ensure no assumptions are made. It’s easy to be confused. This could lead to a problem you don’t want. Make sure everyone is on the same page.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Discussions with parents, bosses and authority figures might be strained. This could be because of confusion with a family member, spouse or partner. Someone might make assumptions that are wrong; or they might misunderstand someone else? Be clear in all your communications.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid controversial subjects, because misunderstandings could get people riled up when there’s no need for this. The problem is there’s a strong potential for confusion that is prevalent everywhere. Pull in your reins and tread carefully. Stay on good terms with others.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Be very clear talking to your kids. Likewise, romantic partners should be clear with each other to avoid misunderstandings that create hurt feelings and disappointment. Also be clear about financial matters. If shopping, get a receipt and think twice before you spend your hard-earned money.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Singer, actor Whitney Houston (1963-2012) shares your birthday. You are positive, upbeat and inspirational! You are also perceptive, talented and helpful. Take time to wrap things up this year. Take inventory of your life. Let go of people, places and things from the past that have held you back. Do some internal and external housecleaning. Commune with nature. Focus on being compassionate.

Main Street restaurant Boujee burns for the second time in one week

Aaron Epp 2 minute read Yesterday at 3:15 PM CDT

A former restaurant on Main Street is set to be demolished after a fire broke out for the second time in less than a week.

Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service crews responded to reports of a fire at Boujee Restaurant and Bar, a vacant, single-storey building on the 100 block of Main Street shortly before 6 a.m. Saturday. The same building was most recently damaged in a fire last Sunday.

At the scene, crews found heavy smoke coming from the building. After attacking the fire using aerial ladders that sprayed water from above, firefighters arranged an emergency demolition of the building. Demolition is expected to be completed today, the WFPS said in a news release.

No injuries were reported and the fire is under investigation.

$60M, six-storey Harbourview Terrace due to open in June 2028

They donned high-vis vests and brandished shovels with gold-coloured blades Friday morning at the ceremonial groundbreaking for a multi-family residential development in northeast Winnipeg.

Concord Projects has started construction of Harbourview Terrace, the inaugural development by two-year-old real estate company Foxhill Properties. Located in North Kildonan at 1820 De Vries Ave., the $60-million, six-storey apartment building will contain 179 units.

Founder and president Frank Koch-Schulte, who runs the company with his wife Alisha, said Foxhill wants to develop and manage properties with integrity.

“This is kind of like my opportunity to try to do things our way, which I feel is a way that keeps tenants in mind,” Koch-Schulte said. “We live in this neighbourhood. We’re very much invested in seeing quality housing go here.”

Bombers look to rally vs. Redblacks

Taylor Allen 5 minute read 6:46 PM CDT

Mike O’Shea is guilty of wearing rose-tinted glasses at times.

There have been situations where a certain player, or the team as a whole, has obviously struggled, and the head coach of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers will downplay the questioning.

But not even O’Shea could take a glass-half-full approach to his team’s most recent performance.

The Bombers, who were on a bye last week, returned to work on Sunday at Fort Garry Lions Field for the first time since suffering an inexcusable 35-19 home loss to the B.C. Lions on July 30.

Former Selkirk teacher convicted of sexual assault denies latest abuse claim

Erik Pindera 2 minute read 3:16 PM CDT

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.

Kenneth MacKinnon Mealey, a former teacher at St. John’s Cathedral Boys’ School in Selkirk, is named in a sexual abuse lawsuit filed in Manitoba’s Court of King’s Bench earlier this year by a man who was once a student at the school.

Mealey was convicted more than 20 years ago of sexually assaulting several boys at the Anglican private school.

The school in Selkirk — known for its harsh discipline and physically gruelling outdoor exercises — closed more than 30 years ago.

Luxury and livability

Todd Lewys 5 minute read Yesterday at 2:00 AM CDT

Those in the market for a new luxury home tend to be looking for two things.

First, the home must be unique — which is to say it possesses defining design characteristics that set it apart from other homes. Second, while the home must be different, it also must be livable.

Problem is, many home builders get too focused on fashion, which often makes for a visually arresting home that, sadly, isn’t as functional as it could be.

Fortunately, that’s not the case in Maric Homes’ stunning bungalow show home at 2 Woodland Lane in Headingley’s Forest Grove Estates.

Lac du Bonnet slowly healing from devastating fire

Nicole Buffie 6 minute read Friday, Aug. 7, 2026

LAC DU BONNET — Fifteen months after devastating wildfires ripped through Lac du Bonnet, claiming two lives and destroying more than a dozen homes, residents are trying their best to build back better.

Along the winding gravel path that is Wendigo Road outside Lac du Bonnet, new timber peeks through patches of charred forest. Homes and cottages are beginning to take shape after fire raced through the neighbourhood at record speed and levelled at least 18 homes on the road.

Table saws and nail guns ring in the distance while Brian Curtis plots out where his new cottage will go. Curtis bought his previous cottage 19 years ago and had recently levelled the foundation.

He and his wife, Pam, had been thinking about long-term renovations when the May 13, 2025 fire swept away all their work and memories.
