MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or important decisions from 9:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. today. After that, the moon moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius.     

 

ARIES (March 21-April 19)  

Because of the moon alert, it’s a poor day for financial decisions and major purchases. Nevertheless, this is a fun-loving, playful day. Enjoy a long lunch with someone. Book off early. Enjoy the arts or get involved in creative projects because you are in touch with your muse today.

 

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) 

Heed the restrictions of the moon alert (see above). However, this is a fabulous day to entertain at home. Invite the gang over for good food and drink. If you are exploring real estate opportunities, wait until the moon alert is over before you act. 

 

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) 

You will enjoy talking to siblings, relatives and neighbours because everyone is in a good mood. You will feel loved by all. Nevertheless, heed the restrictions of the moon alert. Restrict spending during the alert to food, gas and entertainment.

 

CANCER (June 21-July 22) 

This is a tricky day. It’s a wonderful day for business and commerce and making a profit. However, during the actual time of the moon alert, do not agree to anything important or sign important papers. Just get your information and data then wait.

 

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) 

Today you feel contented and keen to socialize with others. While the planetary aspects today are traditionally good for financial matters, do not do anything important during the moon alert. During this time, restrict your spending to food, gas and entertainment.

 

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) 

Today you are pleased with yourself as well as others. You’re glad to be alive and life feels good. However, most of this day is a moon alert, which is wonderful for socializing and creative activities — but poor for shopping and business. (See above.)

 

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) 

This is a fabulous day to schmooze with friends or interact with clubs, groups and organizations because the vibes are great. People are energetic, enthusiastic and happy to see you. Note: If you get involved, don’t volunteer for anything or agree to anything important during the moon alert. (See above.)

 

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) 

You make a fabulous impression on bosses, parents and VIPs today, which is why they might approach you with an offer. Do not accept during the moon alert. (See above.) Don’t volunteer for anything during that time. Once it is over — act quickly.

 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) 

You will enjoy partying, travelling with friends and exploring new ideas today because it’s a friendly, upbeat day. However, because most of this day is a moon alert, it’s a poor day for important decisions or purchases. (Check moon alert above.)

 

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) 

Don’t make important financial decisions during the moon alert (see above). Having said that, this is an excellent day to benefit from the wealth of others. Keep your pockets open! Once the moon alert is over, grab your winnings.

 

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) 

Everyone around you will be in good spirits today, which is why this is a lovely day to enjoy social occasions, amusements and entertainment. It’s a romantic day as well! In addition to good times with friends and partners, you will also enjoy relating to groups. 

 

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) 

This is a positive day at work for you because you will get along with co-workers and customers because everyone is upbeat and happy. It’s possible to boost your earnings and explore new projects. However, do not make important decisions during the moon alert. Restrict your spending during that time to food, gas and entertainment.

 

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY 

Tennis champ/philanthropist Roger Federer (1981) shares your birthday today. You are responsible and realistic. You are also kind, considerate and generous. You are workaholic striving for perfection. Now is the time to clarify future goals because you are entering a year of exciting changes and new beginnings. Start to define what you want for yourself in the next several years. Be pro-active. This year, you will feel physically energetic.

It’s hard to imagine a more dramatic political contrast than the one unfolding on opposite sides of the Canada-U.S. border.

Mark Carney is fighting a trade war with Donald Trump, taking the occasional verbal punch from the American president and imposing retaliatory tariffs on U.S. products.

And the prime minister is being rewarded for it politically.

Trump, meanwhile, is fighting pretty much everyone he can find — including some of America’s closest allies — and his own voters are increasingly giving him the political equivalent of a raised middle finger. That’s quite a tale of two leaders.

Retired sportscaster Scott Oake determined as fundraising for women's addictions treatment facility enters home stretch

Melissa Martin 4 minute read Thursday, Sep. 10, 2026

For now, the patch of land just east of the Victoria Hospital doesn’t look like much: just a field of rocks, mounded dirt, and concrete piles driven into the earth. Yet when Scott Oake looks over the site, he can already imagine how it will look in just over a year’s time, when the new Anne Oake Family Recovery Centre is expected to open.

It’s easier to picture this time around. In 2020, when the recently-retired CBC sportscaster and his late wife, Anne, were building their first labour of intermingled grief and love, the Bruce Oake Recovery Centre for men, it was hard for him to wrap his mind around how a raw construction site could transform into a welcoming addictions treatment facility.

When that centre opened in 2021, Oake found it looked “almost identical” to the architect’s renderings. So it’s easy to hope the Anne Oake Centre will be the same. It will be the first facility of its kind, its founders believe, not only in Canada but in North America: a place where 50 to 70 women can pursue sobriety while staying with their children.

“At Bruce Oake there’s a culture of love, and most of all a culture of hope,” Oake said, speaking at the site Thursday after a media conference to announce the final push of the centre’s fundraising campaign. “I can feel it every time I walk into that building. And I know it will be the same here.”

Citizen reports help highlight connectivity issues across southwest Manitoba

Nicole Buffie 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 10:43 AM CDT

A southwestern Manitoba man has created a map to document cell service blackout spots in an effort to push for better access in rural areas.

Mark Custance compiled more than 300 citizen reports over the last few months to document where service in southwest Manitoba is strong, spotty or doesn’t exist at all.

“I’ve heard people complain and say, ‘cell service sucks’ or ‘this is not working.’ But what does the data actually say?” Custance said from his office in Melita, where he has installed a cell-service booster to maintain connectivity with the rest of the world.

Analyzing where service is good and poor, he cross-references it with the location of cellphone towers across the region.

Mayoral candidate denounced for online comments

Morgan Modjeski 3 minute read Updated: 2:34 PM CDT

A Winnipeg mayoral candidate is facing criticism after he posted derogatory comments about immigrants and used the word “gay” as an insult online.

Sydney Adams said the response she got from Zac Uminski, who is seeking the city’s top office alongside 12 other individuals, left her baffled. She recently criticized Uminski over his use of artificial intelligence to produce campaign material, to which he replied he can’t afford to hire people to make art or “do whatever gay s—- you think is better than AI.”

“What was going through my head was that this is just unacceptable,” she said.

Adams said Uminski also posted other disparaging remarks about newcomers.

Port of Churchill expansion could chase belugas away, U of M researcher says

Nicole Buffie 4 minute read 9:07 AM CDT

As plans to expand the Port of Churchill into a four-season trade corridor gathers momentum, a University of Manitoba researcher has published a report on what ship traffic could mean for the beluga whales that gather in the Churchill River estuary each summer.

Veronica Coppolaro said more vessels in the waterways bring a risk that belugas will stop using the estuary for migration, which would impact the ecological landscape, tourism and communities that rely on the animals for food and cultural purposes.

“There are studies showing that (noises) change the way they swim, they change the way (the whales) are vocalizing, they change their main activity, and so this (expansion) can have consequences at different levels,” she said.

The Churchill river estuary is a marine habitat where the Churchill River empties into Hudson Bay. During the summer months belugas gather in the area to feed and give birth.

Tory health critic ‘disappointed’ after being rebuffed by health officials

Carol Sanders 3 minute read Yesterday at 11:53 AM CDT

The health critic for the Progressive Conservative party says her ability to get information about the accelerated reopening of Dauphin’s emergency department was stymied by Prairie Mountain Health officials because they refused to meet with her.

“I wanted to meet with PMH staff to discuss the status of the facility and the challenges they’re facing and getting services back online,” Kathleen Cook said Friday.

“I was very disappointed that Prairie Mountain Health declined me that opportunity.”

Cook said she asked for a meeting a few days after the Sept. 7 reopening of a temporary ER at the hospital, that was severely damaged by flooding.
