MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The moon is in Sagittarius.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You want adventure and stimulation — something interesting! You might also make practical plans related to the law, medicine, higher education or publishing. Yet, you feel playful, even though relations with someone close to you might be strained.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Even though relations with co-workers might be cool, discussions about finances, money, debt and how to cover expenses at home will go well. You feel secure in practical ways even though everything isn’t perfect. But then, when is it ever?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is an excellent day to talk to others. Someone older or wiser might have something to contribute. (Why not stand on the shoulders of those who have gone before you?) Meanwhile, romance, as well as relations with kids, might be strained. Tender patience is key.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

It might be in your best interests to listen to the advice of parents, bosses, teachers or the police, because it could benefit you. In fact, it might benefit your job as well as your earnings now or in the future. Admittedly, relations with a family member or parent might be strained.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Social outings, time spent with kids and romantic get-togethers can be enjoyable. You might learn something valuable and helpful. Don’t let a conversation with someone older ruin your day or shake your self-confidence. This is your day.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Although you might have financial worries or feel pinched in the money department (join the club — we number millions), family relations are warm. In fact, you might be encouraged by the offer of help, in practical or monetary terms, that can come your way.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

The day is a mixed bag. You’ll enjoy talking to others, especially siblings, relatives and neighbours. Groups will be supportive. However, you might feel disappointed or unloved in a close relationship — with a partner or marriage. This might be the culmination of something that started 14 years ago.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is an excellent day for financial decisions and discussions with bosses and authority figures about your job or even your health. Someone behind the scenes might be critical. As Katie Couric said, “You can’t please everyone — and you can’t make everyone like you.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The moon is in your sign dancing with your ruler, lucky Jupiter, as well as stern Saturn. In a curious way, this boosts your confidence, while at the same time makes you cautious and practical. Don’t worry if things are strained with a friend or member of a group. It happens.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Because relations with a parent, boss or someone in authority might be strained, your impulse might be to pull back and hide somewhere — preferably with some food that’s a wonderful guilty pleasure. I think this is a good idea. If it’s raining outside — seek shelter.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Friendships are warm and supportive. Some are upbeat and jubilant; others are steady, practical and beneficial. Enjoy making plans and goals with someone. Unfortunately, romance with someone “different” or far away might be discouraging. (This might be temporary.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Many issues related to your job or work are rewarding right now. In fact, many of you are in a new position or feeling fulfilment from your work, which is a wonderful thing. This is also apparent to others as well. Nevertheless, funds from a different source might be disappointing. It is what it is.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Carrie-Anne Moss (1967) shares your birthday. You’re resourceful, pragmatic and imaginative. You are also realistic and driven to achieve your goals. This is the perfect year to kick back and relax. Enjoy socializing and relating to others. Let your guard down and loosen up a bit! Old friends might reappear to rekindle relationships.

ER wait times have hit all-time highs in Winnipeg and are impacting nearly all aspects of hospital operations

On most days at Health Sciences Centre’s adult emergency department, all 58 treatment beds are filled with sick patients. Another dozen or so brought in by ambulance line the hallways on stretchers, with only one nurse to look after them.

Out in the waiting room, about 30 or 40 people — sometimes more — are slouched in chairs in pain or discomfort, waiting hours to see a doctor. Most have been assessed by a triage nurse, but many will have to wait 10 to 20 hours to be examined by a physician because there’s no room for them in the treatment area.

Some patients leave because they can no longer tolerate the excruciating wait, only to return days later, sicker than they were before.

Welcome to the emergency department at Manitoba’s largest hospital, where some of the highest-acuity patients seek medical care but now face delays that were unimaginable a few years ago.

BigXThaPlug misses Country Rising appearance after arrest

1 minute read Yesterday at 12:05 PM CDT

Country-rap headliner BigXThaPlug, scheduled to appear at the third annual Country Rising festival at Blue Cross Park on Friday, missed performing at the festival after being arrested on drug charges in Texas earlier in the day.

According to Dallas’s KDFW, the performer, born Xavier Landum, was arrested by the Allen Police Department and booked into the Collin County Jail on Friday.

The jail’s website states Landum was charged with driving while intoxicated, marijuana possession of less than two ounces, and unlawful possession of a firearm.

Roadside giants towering symbols of Canada’s quirkiness

Could you imagine a Canada without Mr. PG repping Prince George, B.C.? Or the Big Nickel in Sudbury? Or, my personal favourite, Happy Rock in Gladstone?

Earlier this summer, CBC’s Cost of Living looked at the economics of these giant roadside attractions — of which there are more than 1,500 in Canada — and the cost of keeping them.

Some are falling into disrepair — this is why public art funding is necessary, by the way, not just for construction, but maintenance — and some towns are weighing whether or not that money is better spent elsewhere.

The main character of the story: Tyra the Tyrannosaurus, the rather literal symbol of Drumheller, Alta., a.k.a. the Dinosaur Capital of the World since 2000, who could be facing extinction after the lease agreement between the town and the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce ends in 2029.

Swede leads Manitoba Open, Winnipegger sits 33rd

Mike McIntyre 6 minute read Yesterday at 6:53 PM CDT

From Lars-Erik Sjoberg to Thomas Steen to Viggo Bjorck, there’s no shortage of Swedish athletes who have quickly become fan favourites here in Winnipeg.

Daniel Svard is hoping to add his name to the growing list.

Although he wields a golf club and not a hockey stick, the 23-year-old from Stockholm is opening plenty of eyes this week at Elmhurst. He carries a two-shot lead into Sunday’s final round of the Manitoba Open, looking to close out his first professional victory in his just his fourth career tournament.

Svard fired a six-under 66 on Saturday to move to 14-under through 54 holes of the PGA Tour Americas event.

Quick quotes: Here’s what people are saying about the Canada-U.S. trade negotiations

Catherine Morrison and David Baxter, The Canadian Press 10 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 8:04 PM CDT

OTTAWA - The United States imposed 50 per cent tariffs on billions of dollars worth of Canadian exports Saturday, after the two countries failed to reach a new trade deal before an extended deadline imposed by President Donald Trump earlier in the week.

In response, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Canada will retaliate with matching dollar-for-dollar tariffs. Carney also suspended talks with the United States and summoned his negotiators back to Ottawa.

Here's what people are saying in response:
