MOON ALERT: After 3:30 a.m. today there are no restrictions to shopping or making important decisions. The moon is in Taurus.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This is a poor day to achieve anything of substance at home or in dealing with family members. No matter what you suggest — or even what others proffer — will probably fall flat. Choose another time. In the meantime, just work hard and stay on track.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

The moon is in your sign at odds with Pluto, which can make you compulsive and impulsive. As a result, emotional power struggles with others, especially authority figures, are likely. You don’t need this. This is a poor day to suggest anything. Instead, fold your tents. Perhaps seek pleasure in socializing.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a poor day for discussions about purchases, possessions and money issues with a friend or group. Nobody will agree. In fact, it could end up in a quarrel. Also, steer clear of controversial issues as this is a touchy day for everyone.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) 01

This is a challenging day for you — no question. Mars is in your sign and it’s at odds with stern Saturn. Proceed slowly and cautiously. Obstacles, even a sense of fear or inadequacy, might prevent you from being effective. Authority figures might not co-operate. Go gently.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You have a strong focus on money and cash flow right now; and of course, lucky Jupiter is in your sign. Nevertheless, relations with parents, bosses and authority figures might be challenging because of impulsive or compulsive actions on the part of someone. Slow down.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You need to have lower expectations when it comes to the co-operation of friends and groups. Their reply might be, “Talk to the hand!” Avoid controversial subjects as they will quickly escalate into nasty power struggles. Keep your head down and your powder dry.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a poor day to ask for permission or approval because it will be tough to get the co-operation of authority figures. In addition to which, you might find you’re second-guessing yourself or lacking the confidence you need. (This is a tough day for everyone.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Issues related to race, politics, religion, higher education, medicine and the law are touchy subjects, so it’s best to avoid them if you can. You’ll find discussions with partners, spouses and close friends are too emotional. No one is listening.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Squabbles about mutual responsibilities and shared property and money are likely, especially with your kids or a romantic partner. Quarrels over expenses related to social outings or vacations might also arise. Meanwhile, relations with co-workers are dicey. (Time for dark chocolate.)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Discussions with partners, spouses and close friends will be challenging due to heightened emotions all around. People will change their minds. They will refuse to go along with your suggestions. You might do likewise. Be patient with kids and romantic partners.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a challenging day at work. Likewise, health hurdles might arise and even difficulties dealing with your pet. On top of this, discussions at home and with family members will be difficult. Seek escape through travel, film or study. “Run away!”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Romance will be challenging, as will with dealing with kids. Because your emotions are caught up with certain issues, you might insist on having your way or doing what you want. However, others will not agree. Take it easy.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Zendaya (1996) shares your birthday. You are engaging, charming and persuasive. You’re also organized and ambitious to achieve your goals. This is a slower-paced year for you. It’s OK to rest and rejuvenate your energy. Focus on business and personal relationships with people who are kind, helpful and have your back.

At last, some good news on homelessness

Editorial 4 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

There is no shortage of reasons to be frustrated about homelessness in Winnipeg. But the latest numbers provide something that has been increasingly difficult to find — evidence that at least some things are getting better.

A city tally presented to councillors Friday shows 245 people were living in 72 encampments across Winnipeg in July. Last September, the city counted about 700 people living in 100 encampments.

That is a remarkable drop.

It does not mean Winnipeg has solved homelessness. It does not mean every person displaced from an encampment has found a home. And it certainly does not mean there is no longer a problem in the city’s streets and public spaces.

Dangerous offender status sought for convicted killer

Erik Pindera 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

CROWN prosecutors intend to apply to have a convicted killer, who also admitted his guilt in an assault on a stranger at The Forks and a robbery at a local beer vendor, designated as a dangerous offender.

Daniel Christopher Dumas, who is in his mid-30s, pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm and robbery in front of provincial court Judge Donovan Dvorak on Monday for the attacks on June 6 and 7, 2025. He will be sentenced at a later date.

Prosecutor Monique Cam said the Crown plans to apply for a dangerous offender designation for Dumas, which, if granted, could result in him being given an indefinite prison sentence.

“The Crown does intend to make an application at a future date … for a remand for assessment to have Mr. Dumas assessed by a court-ordered assessor for the purpose of pursuing a dangerous offender application,” Cam said.

Carney’s defence of Lake Ontario carries enormous weight

Niigaan Sinclair 5 minute read Friday, Aug. 28, 2026

For centuries on Turtle Island (North America), explorers, map makers, and political leaders have erased Indigenous place names and substituted them — more often than not — with political, ethnocentric, and self-aggrandizing names.

In recent years, a few places on the continent have had Indigenous names re-established, but as of today, few of the original names are “official.”

So, it was no surprise when U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an executive order directing the U.S. Department of the Interior and Board on Geographic Names to take steps within 30 days to officially rename Lake Ontario as “Lake America.”

The move may have been a result of the Canada-U.S. trade war and Trump’s pettiness and ego, but it also fits in perfectly with his career.

Village Green Bakery keeps focus on classic quality, kindness, fun in Victoria Beach

Village Green Bakery keeps focus on classic quality, kindness, fun in Victoria Beach

Aaron Epp 6 minute read Yesterday at 6:00 AM CDT

VICTORIA BEACH — They’re not carved into stone tablets — they’re reminders and not commandments, after all — but behind one of the display cases at Village Green Bakery is a laminated sheet of letter-size paper with a list of statements outlining how owner Jen Leslie wants staffers to approach their work.

Fittingly, there’s a baker’s dozen of them.

One is aimed specifically at a stoic teen who’s worked at the bakery since it opened in summer 2022 — “Smile, Brody,” it says — while the other 12 are meant for all 17 employees at the seasonal business, which is open annually from May long weekend until Thanksgiving.

“Smile and enjoy the ride,” is the first reminder, followed by, “The summer is short, so make it a good one,” “always take the high road” and “you are awesome.”

Two people critically injured in highway crash

1 minute read Yesterday at 3:14 PM CDT

Two people are in critical but stable condition in hospital after they were injured in a two-vehicle crash just west of Roland on Friday.

The crash happened at the intersection of highways 3 and 23 at about 5:40 p.m.

RCMP said an eastbound SUV was crossing Highway 3 when it was hit by a southbound SUV. The eastbound vehicle then rolled into the southeast ditch.

A 51-year-old Morden woman who was driving the eastbound SUV was airlifted to a Winnipeg hospital by STARS air ambulance, RCMP said. A 44-year-old Winkler man who was a passenger in her vehicle was taken to a Winnipeg hospital by ground ambulance.

School zones return Tuesday as lead-footed drivers risk steep fines

Maggie Macintosh 5 minute read Yesterday at 6:00 AM CDT

School crossing guards are preparing to resume their posts on busy corners across the Winnipeg School Division, but Luna Zúñiga isn’t one of them.

Zúñiga hung up her high-visibility vest about 30 months ago after she was struck by a motorist while escorting a child through a pedestrian crosswalk on Grant Avenue at Lanark Street.

Zúñiga protected the child, who wasn’t hurt, but the educational assistant at nearby J.B. Mitchell School suffered life-altering injuries, including nerve damage that limits her stamina, range of motion and makes her left leg “feel like it’s burning all the time.”

“I don’t know what needs to be done (to improve school-zone safety),” she said. “But I do know that when a six-year-old is crossing the street, a car needs to be fully stopped.”
