ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You feel a strong need to relate to others. This is because your emotions are heightened as the moon is in your sign. It’s tricky because you can be emotionally giving and emotionally demanding.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You might be tempted to withdraw from the demands of people and duties around you because you want to avoid something. Probably, you don’t feel like socializing. You might want to explore the mystical side of your world? (You need some privacy.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Your contact with friends and members of groups is important. This is why you might feel more protective and supportive to someone. You might even feel a bit jealous if this person pays more attention to someone else?

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You’re high-viz, which means people notice you more than usual. Keep this in mind in case you’re tempted to have a public argument with a loved one. (Hissing in loud whispers in an elevator?) Be aware that people seem to know details about your private life.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You want to shake things up, because basically, you want some adventure! You need a change of scenery. Therefore, change your daily routine. Go someplace you’ve never been before. This could be a minor thing, but at least it’s fresh and new! This is what you hunger for.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Because your emotional experiences are more intense than usual, this might be reflected in your emotional encounters with others? Perhaps it’s because you feel possessive about something, or it could be related to memories from your past? You might want something someone else has.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your attention will likely turn to your most personal relationships because you feel the need to express your feelings. Because of this, if you have conflict with a spouse, partner or close friend — it will be more emotional. Guard against knee-jerk reactions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might have to put your own emotional considerations second to those of someone else. Don’t worry; you’re not being a martyr. This is just what’s happening. Meanwhile, take a moment to focus on your health and what you might do to improve it. Ideas?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a lovely day for romance, socializing, enjoying a vacation and expanding your world through the theatre, movies and the entertainment world. You might also feel protective and nurturing to children or a romantic partner.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is the perfect day to retire by yourself somewhere and enjoy your own privacy. Make an effort to do this, even if for only a short time. Relax. Take some food that is a guilty pleasure. Read a book, watch TV, indulge yourself — because you need it. Give yourself a mental-health break.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You feel a strong need to talk to others because you have something you want to say. The key is you have to find someone who is willing to listen to you — genuinely and sincerely. (In other words, you don’t want to simply chat to someone about something inconsequential.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

It’s easy to identify with your possessions, which is why you might feel more possessive about something than usual? For example, perhaps you don’t want to lend something to someone? Check the moon alert before spending money. Definitely.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Ingrid Bergman (1915-1982) shares your birthday. You’re clever, independent, wise and often romantically involved with someone. You are always inquisitive. This is a slower-paced year. Take time to rejuvenate your energy and your outlook. Focus on business and personal relationships, and make sure you hang out with people who are kind, helpful and have your back.

Manitoba Hydro’s strategy: Deny, deny, deny

Tim Sale 5 minute read Friday, Aug. 28, 2026

Here’s a good story…

A man walks into your office and says, “Have I got a deal for you! I want $3 billion (plus perhaps a bit more) to build you something that you might use three or even four times a year, for maybe 30-60 hours each time. Sign here.”

You might respond… “and I’ve got a lovely bridge for sale…”

That is exactly what Manitoba Hydro wants — $3 billion or more, plus the fossil fuel bonus for peak load events that happen a few times each year. They assure us that the gas turbines will only be used very occasionally. At the same time, they tell us that we are headed for a crisis of energy supply by 2030.

Hydro announces CEO out after two years

Chris Kitching 6 minute read Friday, Aug. 28, 2026

Allan Danroth is out as Manitoba Hydro’s president and CEO — a departure that came as a surprise to some observers — just two years after he was hired.

Danroth left for personal reasons, the Crown corporation’s board chair, Jamie Wilson, said Friday, while announcing chief operating officer Hal Turner as interim president and CEO ahead of a national and international search for a replacement.

“Today’s one of those days where you have a lot of mixed emotions,” Turner told reporters at Hydro’s downtown Winnipeg headquarters. “I just want to say on behalf of all the employees in Manitoba Hydro, we very much appreciate Allan’s leadership over the last two years.”

Turner wouldn’t say whether he will apply to be the next permanent CEO.

No kidding with comment on son’s resemblance

Maureen Scurfield 5 minute read Yesterday at 2:00 AM CDT

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I saw someone on the beach I used to love. She was with her husband, who had just gone into the water. She had several children with her, playing in the sand.

Her oldest kid looked right up at me and I said to my ex in a shocked whisper, “He looks like me!”

She replied in a whisper, “And my husband looks a lot like you, too, you idiot. My son was born two years after we broke up. He’s not yours, and you and I mean nothing to each other anymore.”

Interesting! That child had my colour of eyes and my colour of curly hair. Now what?

Beware invasive, ‘frightening’ waterhemp

Laura Rance-Unger 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

There’s a threat lurking on the edge of Manitoba farmers’ fields this fall that’s even scarier than the escalating trade war with their biggest customer.

Provincial extension advisers are warning farmers to watch for a weed known as “tall waterhemp,” which, true to its name, may already be towering above ready-to-harvest crops.

Those wispy tentacles waving in the breeze look pretty innocuous from a distance. But this highly invasive member of the pigweed family produces hundreds of thousands of seeds that are just itching for dispersal through farmers’ combines and across their fields.

Each of those tiny seeds — one small pill container filled halfway holds 44,000 — can produce plants with stems the width of saplings and heights of two to five metres. One or two plants can quickly turn into a patch. If waterhemp takes over a field, it can choke out the growing crop and cut yields by more than 90 per cent.

Nightclub owner, divorced dad sentenced for involvement in cocaine-trafficking case

Erik Pindera 5 minute read Yesterday at 7:00 AM CDT

Three people, including a Winnipeg nightclub owner and a divorced dad desperate for cash, have been sentenced in a cocaine-trafficking case city police were once concerned had been compromised by a corrupt cop.

The trio was charged in early 2024 as part of Project Roasted, a lengthy investigation into a drug trafficking network by the Winnipeg Police Service organized crime unit.

Investigators arrested two of the men, Mohamed Ali and Abdullah Khan, as they left the Stella’s on Pembina Highway in early February 2024. Two kilograms of cocaine was found in Khan’s car.

On the same day, Ahmed Dini was arrested at his River Avenue suite, where investigators found more than 200 rocks of crack cocaine.
