MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or important decisions from 9 a.m. until 10:15 a.m. After that, the moon moves from Pisces into Aries.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You’ll see ways to make improvements in your immediate environment or to your image. (Admittedly, you have strong feelings, which could lead to sudden outbursts.) However, social occasions, sporting events and fun activities with kids will appeal — along with romance.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You might prefer to be low-key or do things behind the scenes. Nevertheless, this is a feel-good day. Interactions with family members will be positive. Redecorating your home and entertaining are good choices if you feel up to it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a fun-loving, sociable day. Get out and enjoy the company of others. Take a short trip; talk to neighbours, relatives and siblings or run errands because you feel upbeat and friendly. You might meet a potential romantic partner.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

People notice you more than usual, but this is a good thing because you look attractive and capable. This is why discussions about earnings, moneymaking ideas and possible expenditures will go well with authority figures. However, you will have strong feelings about shared property.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a lovely day to expand your world in any way. Travel is an obvious choice. Go someplace you have never been before, if possible. Talk to people from other cultures. Learn new things. Take a course. People will be attracted to you because you’re charming and entertaining.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is an excellent day for financial discussions. You might want to ask for a loan or a mortgage, or your share of something. Discussions about inheritances will go well. Nevertheless, you might do all of this from a behind-the-scenes position. Ultimately, you want to improve something.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a lovely day. People will be friendly to you, especially creative, artistic types. Nevertheless, keep in mind you will have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. Be prepared to accommodate and compromise. Ultimately, this is a warm, romantic day.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is perhaps the best day of the week so do get out and enjoy yourself. For starters, you make an excellent impression on everyone. Co-workers will be helpful, especially because you see ways to introduce improvements. You might also improve your health in some way. Looking good.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You are the traveller of the zodiac and this is a fabulous day to travel. Of course, you might not be able to do so. If this is the case, then be a tourist in your own town. Do something to expand your experience of life. Learn something new. Be open to romance with someone different.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a passionate day for you. Family discussions, especially with female relatives, might be intense. Emotional outbursts might take place. Nevertheless, you will see ways to introduce improvements, especially because you’re prepared to work hard. It’s a work hard/party hard day.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might have an intense discussion with a partner or close friend. Certainly, relations with those close to you will be positive and friendly. (They might also be intense and emotional.) Social outings will be promising. It’s a great date-day and wonderful for romance.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is the best day of the week, so enjoy yourself. You can accomplish a lot at work or with whatever you want to achieve; and you can also enjoy fun, saucy flirtations with someone. You might see new ways to earn money. Others will see new uses for something you already own.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actress Miriam Shor (1971) shares your birthday. You have principles and a strong code of honour. You like to do the right thing. You are motivated to succeed. This is a year of work, building and construction to create solid foundations in your life — both externally and internally.

There is a condition affecting tens of thousands of Canadians.

In 2024, one national measure estimated that almost 120,000 people had the condition. The estimate captures only part of the problem.

The same data show its chronic form becoming more common. In 2017, an estimated 28,900 people met the definition for its chronic form. By 2024, there were 36,058, an increase of almost 25 per cent.

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

Nicole Buffie 4 minute read Yesterday at 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.

Pokemon thieves clear out collectibles shop

Scott Billeck 5 minute read Friday, Sep. 11, 2026

Terri Settle loved watching children walk into her collectibles shop to hunt for their favourite Pokemon cards.

After the latest break in stripped her shelves of much of the inventory, she’s not sure she’ll get to see it again.

Thieves broke into Terri’s Trinkets and Toys on Tuesday evening, punching through a grate and then the store’s bathroom wall to reach the storefront.

They made off with about $6,000 worth of merchandise, including all of the store’s Pokemon cards — about 7,000 of them — along with toys, Lego, jewelry, video games, a debit machine and personal laptop. They even took her vacuum cleaner.

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

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.

Young Winnipeg Jet hopeful, Viggo Bjorck, shines brightly in prospects tournament

Mike McIntyre 6 minute read Yesterday at 4:59 PM CDT

It’s safe to say Viggo Bjorck made plenty of new friends and fans this past weekend — including members of his own Winnipeg Jets prospects team which split a pair of tournament games in Quebec.

Take Davis Burnside for example. The undrafted 22-year-old forward, who signed with the Manitoba Moose last spring after finishing up at Ohio State University, couldn’t believe his eyes when he was put on a line with Bjorck, the eighth-overall pick from this summer’s draft and one of the most exciting young players in 2.0 Jets history.

“You see all the highlights and you just can’t wait to play with him,” said Burnside.

It wasn’t long before they teamed up for a highlight of their own. Bjorck made a sensational through-the-legs, no-look pass to Burnside on Sunday afternoon, setting him up for a shorthanded snipe in an eventual 6-4 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs young guns.

The port of Churchill — but done right

Editorial 4 minute read Saturday, Sep. 12, 2026

The seagoing grain carrier wasn’t christened with a champagne bottle. There was no confetti or streamers. Nevertheless, the Aug. 31 event marking the first shipment of grain to be loaded at the Port of Churchill since 2020 was celebrated like the launch of a brand new vessel.

The presence of the federal minister of northern and arctic affairs, provincial cabinet ministers and leaders and elders from several northern First Nations signalled that the fast-tracked process of refurbishing and buffing up Manitoba’s deep-water seaport gem is gaining momentum.

For OneNorth, the partnership of 29 First Nations and 12 northern communities which owns the Port of Churchill and the Hudson Bay Railway (both operated by the Arctic Gateway Group) the event heralded a new beginning. It’s been eight years since OneNorth purchased the port and railroad, and six years since grain was moved by rail through Manitoba and then by ship to European markets. Two more grain shipments, plus shipments of potash and critical minerals, will continue through the fall.

When Prime Minister Mark Carney solicited the premiers to suggest “nation-building” projects following his election in 2025, Premier Wab Kinew pitched a Manitoba trade corridor that would move wheat, critical minerals, potash and energy (oil or liquid natural gas) through the Port of Churchill.
