MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping (except food and gas) and important decisions until 8 a.m. After that, the moon moves from Gemini into Cancer.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Stay on your toes, because surprise invitations to fun occasions, social outings or anything related to sports, the arts and the entertainment world might make your day. Child-related activities might be unpredictable. Enjoy short trips and talking to everyone.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Stock the fridge, because your home routine might be interrupted, but hopefully, in a pleasant way. Surprise company might drop by. You might buy something beautiful or high-tech for your home. A family member might have great news. This is a fast-paced, upbeat day.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a marvellous day to shmooz. It’s also a romantic day so don’t hesitate to make your move. Something will happen to make you enjoy the beauty of your daily surroundings. Unexpected visits with siblings, relatives and neighbours will please you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Financial matters are a bit unpredictable; nevertheless, a surprise gift, favour or money might benefit you — out of the blue. Likewise, you might make some spontaneous purchases. The moon is in your sign, which gives you an edge over everyone else.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a great day to shmooz, because you feel excited and alive. Romance is definitely favoured. Someone unusual might pop into your world. Or perhaps, someone you already know will do something to surprise you. Stay light on your feet so you can be ready for anything.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

With the sun high in your chart, you look great to everyone. Meanwhile, something behind the scenes might surprise you or catch you off-guard — but very likely it’s pleasant. It might even be a secret love affair or a surprise flirtation. Conversations with friends and groups will go well.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

There’s excitement in the air, which could be due to an unexpected encounter with a friend or someone you haven’t seen for a while. Alternatively, you might meet a real character. In either case, surprise romance might be waiting for you. (Look your best.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

When dealing with authority figures — bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police — something unexpected but pleasant might happen. This could be a flirtation or the beginning of a new romance. It might be a favour. Perhaps someone will recommend you for something. Looking good.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Remember, you need more sleep this week. Fortunately, unexpected opportunities to travel might fall into your lap. You might also have a flirtation with someone “different” that is thrilling. Meanwhile, discussions about finances, taxes, debt and inheritances will be positive.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Keep your pockets open, because unexpected gifts, goodies and favours from others might come your way. Get ready for romantic promise in all your relationships. Even a casual friendship will be warm and friendly. Because you’re keen to work, you will accomplish a lot.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Exciting romance might sweep you off your feet. This could be a new love or an exciting injection for a long-term relationship. Co-workers are supportive. Be patient with family members, because activity and chaos at home might be challenging.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Two strong influences are at play. You want to relax and hide at home among familiar surroundings. You also might be more involved with a parent. Nevertheless, romance, social outings and a surprise work-related flirtation might catch you off-guard. (This is not a boring day.)

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor, singer Neil Patrick Harris (1973) shares your birthday. You’re genuinely interested in other people. You’re intuitive, compassionate and a great team player. This is a year of building and construction for you to create both internal and external structures. Simplicity is key. Take charge of your health. Stay grounded and levelheaded. Get organized to accomplish your goals.

‘Eight credible threats’ against Hydro employees: CEO

Chris Kitching 6 minute read Monday, Jul. 27, 2026

Manitoba Hydro president and CEO Allan Danroth took aim at critics and revealed he and staff members have been threatened while defending the Crown corporation’s plan for three new combustion turbines Monday.

Without identifying individuals, Danroth said “constant, uninformed criticism” of Hydro and misinformation has eroded public trust and contributed to hostilities and an unsafe workplace for employees.

“Manitoba Hydro is currently managing eight credible threats against our employees, five of them directed at me personally,” Danroth told a Public Utilities Board hearing in Winnipeg.

“More troubling is these threats are increasingly affecting our front-line workforce. In the last year, my employees have been threatened with weapons, including guns, while performing their duties, and in one recent incident a homeowner directed his dogs to attack one of our meter readers.”

It may be frustrating, but it’s necessary

Editorial 4 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

Many of this country’s public utilities are virtual monopolies, and because of that, their ability to set rates and their long-term capital plans need review in order to protect their ratepayers.

Men’s title turning into two-horse race between clubmates Fanning and Doyle

Mike McIntyre 5 minute read Yesterday at 8:11 PM CDT

Angela Martens was once a rising star on the Manitoba golf scene, with the 1999 provincial amateur title serving as Exhibit A.

But life eventually took precedence over sport as she faded from the competitive spotlight, with a runner-up finish at the Amateur in 2010 marking her most recent appearance near the top of the leaderboard.

Now, all these years later, Martens is back — and on the cusp of another championship.

The Elmhurst member takes a one-shot lead into Wednesday’s final round of the 2026 Hodson Financial Women’s Senior Championship at Breezy Bend after posting rounds of 80 and 79.

Supervised consumption site to open Aug. 11

Scott Billeck 2 minute read Yesterday at 9:29 AM CDT

The province’s first supervised consumption site is set for an official launch on Aug. 11, a provincial spokesperson has confirmed.

The 366 Henry Ave. site, which is being run by the Aboriginal Health and Wellness Centre of Winnipeg, will have two days of training for staff members later this week, before opening for full operation in the parking lot in two weeks.

The building is still undergoing renovations, and operations will eventually be moved inside the former Western Fabrics building.

In the interim, mobile units will be set up in the parking lot, which has been fenced off for privacy reasons.

Leave lonely lake life and get back to busy

Maureen Scurfield 4 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I’m going crazy! My husband and I are living up at a lake for the first summer after buying a beautiful new cabin. I thought it was going to be heaven, but it’s been hell for me.

I’m not retired, but I’m able to work at my office job remotely for the summer. The problem is, I’m already lonely and bored while my husband is out fishing. My man goes off in the boat with his buddies in the early morning, often for the whole day and the early evening, too. Now he says he’s “in fisherman’s heaven” with his retired buddies who go explore the many great angling lakes around us.

If it goes on all summer and into early fall, and I’ll be out of my mind by then. Most of the other guys’ wives stay back in the city now. They learned early on it’s a drag to be a fisherman’s “widow.”

I called my boss this morning after my husband left to go fishing. My manager says they’re really busy right now, and could use me there ASAP. Yay! I can come back to the office as soon as I want, but I feel guilty about leaving my husband alone. What should I do?

Sottobraccio brings Harth’s Italian flavours to new location in Osborne Village

Eva Wasney 4 minute read Yesterday at 5:21 PM CDT

Sottobraccio is the answer to a common refrain at Harth Mozza & Wine Bar.

“The No. 1 thing we always hear from guests at Harth is, ‘We love coming here, but it’s such a drive,’” chef Brent Genyk says of his popular fine-dining restaurant in South St. Vital.

Harth’s new sister restaurant opened in the heart of Osborne Village in June, joining a raft of other eateries that have moved into the central Winnipeg neighbourhood in recent years.

Sottobraccio is located at 160 Osborne St. in the main floor of the Zü, a new retail and residential complex built on the former site of the Osborne Village Motor Inn and its well-known music venue, the Zoo.
