MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Scorpio. Happy Leap Day!

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This is an excellent day to make financial plans or discuss inheritances and issues related to shared property, taxes and debt. You’re in a sensible frame of mind but you’re also optimistic and ready to think big. This is a lovely balance of influences that will help you make intelligent decisions.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Discussions with friends, partners and members of the general public will be successful today. Someone older or more experienced might have advice for you. You’ll enjoy interacting with groups of all ages of people today. It’s a great day to plan for the future!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a productive day, in large measure because you will make a great impression on bosses, parents, teachers and people in authority. They see you as reliable, conscientious and trustworthy. Meanwhile, you’re not afraid to speak up with visionary ideas and bold plans. (Impressive.)

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Explore opportunities in publishing, the media or anything connected with medicine, the law and higher education, because today you can make serious plans; yet at the same time, you have a strong optimism for the future. Great day to make travel plans as well.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Family discussions about shared property and inheritances will go well today. You might take some time alone at home to sort out paperwork, especially because you feel optimistic about what is possible. Not only are you optimistic today, you’re also realistic, which is a favourable combination.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a great day to study and learn something new. Meanwhile, discussions with neighbours, relatives and siblings will be practical, and at the same time, hopeful. This is an excellent day to make plans because they might add joy or luxury to your life.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Business and commerce are favoured today because two separate influences are at play. One influence is practical, serious and solid. The other influence is ambitious and hopeful. The combination of these two influences means you will likely come up with realistic, profitable ideas.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Things will go your way today, which is why you should go after what you want. It’s a great day to entertain or enjoy social outings, especially with children or anything related to sports and the entertainment world. Relations with partners and close friends will be warm and supportive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is the perfect day to hunker down and enjoy some privacy. Nevertheless, you can also get a lot done working alone or behind the scenes. You might also choose to be reclusive at home. Either way, you’ll be productive and happy!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

An older friend might have advice for you today about dealing with children, sports, vacations or the arts. You might also be interested in the entertainment world. Listen to those who have more experience than you because they will expand your future opportunities.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Financial discussions will go well today. In fact, you might impress someone older, perhaps a parent or a boss. You might buy something practical that brings enjoyment to your home and family today. Trust your ability to make wise financial decisions, because you can do so.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a great day to study. It’s also a wonderful day to make travel plans. Discussions about legal matters will go well for you today because practical results are promising. You might enjoy a short trip because you will love to learn new things, especially something realistic that can improve your everyday life.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Peter Scanavino (1980) shares your birthday. You have a perceptive insight into what makes others tick, which is why you have excellent social skills and relate well to people. Home and family always matter to you. This is a fun-loving year! Let your guard down and loosen up. Enjoy yourself as well as old friends who might reappear.

Confidence vote was gamble for MLA, Tories: political expert

Alex Lambert 5 minute read Thursday, Oct. 1, 2026

BRANDON — A Progressive Conservative MLA’s decision to put forward a confidence motion against the party’s former leader carries a lot of risk for her and the Tories, a political science expert says.

Obby Khan resigned as leader of the PCs on Monday after Jodie Byram (Agassiz) initiated a confidence vote against him the previous week.

The majority of the PC caucus voted in favour of Khan, but he resigned a few days later, citing continued efforts to undermine him by a minority of MLAs.

Brandon University political science Prof. Kelly Saunders said while she doesn’t know what Byram’s motivations were for triggering the vote, such a move carries a lot of risk.

Health minister warns $1.2 billion in annual federal funding set to expire in March

Scott Billeck 4 minute read Thursday, Oct. 1, 2026

Manitoba’s health minister is warning of possible cuts to health care with $1.2 billion in annual funding from Ottawa set to expire next year.

“We’re very concerned that what would be the largest cut to health care in a generation is right in front of us,” Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara said Thursday at the Manitoba legislature. “It means that services that Manitobans depend on will be in jeopardy and be at risk.

“Any reductions, any cuts from Canada, will have direct impacts on the health outcomes of Manitobans.”

Asagwara, who serves as the provincial and territorial health minister lead, chaired a virtual meeting Tuesday with provincial and territorial health ministers to discuss federal funding for health care, mental health care and substance use services, which is scheduled to expire March 31, 2027.

Disorganized — that’s what Marcus Langlois calls recent United States tariffs.

He expects suppliers’ prices to increase — on mugs, pens, hoodies — for his employer, Dreamcatcher Promotions, if the United States–Canada trade war persists.

Still, he’s not pining for a quick trade deal.

“I think it should wait,” said Langlois, Dreamcatcher Promotions’ vice-president. “Let’s hope that it’s later on with proper negotiations happening.”

Gordon Bell rings in a century

Mischka Valencia had gotten used to the hum of heavy machinery at Gordon Bell High School.

“Ever since I’ve been here, it’s all been under construction,” the Grade 12 student said, standing on the sidelines of the brightly painted revamped outdoor basketball court. “I had no idea this was a court.”

The Filipina teenager landed in Winnipeg several months after the inner-city campus had transformed into a construction site.

It was the fall of 2023 and Mischka’s priorities were fitting in, befriending classmates and learning a third language via first-period French.

Volunteer pop-up library axed from Manitoba Youth Centre

Matthew Frank 4 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

Manitoba Corrections has cancelled a pop-up library program at the Manitoba Youth Centre, leaving inmates without librarian services and fewer options to borrow certain books.

The Prison Libraries Committee, part of the non-profit Manitoba Library Association, operated and funded the volunteer program since 2024 before it was shut down by the province last month. The group previously partnered with the province to offer the service because the facility has no dedicated library of its own.

“It is concerning that community members who are incarcerated, especially youth, are losing out on meaningful programming, access to information and rehabilitation efforts, which are offered at no cost to (Manitoba) Corrections. We urge Manitoba Justice to promote more library services and programming, not less,” said a Sept. 24 letter from the non-profit addressed to the justice minister.

Ashley Huot, chair of the Prison Libraries Committee, said she was puzzled when she received an email last month from Manitoba Corrections stating that the pop-up library was no longer needed.
