ARIES (March 21-April 19)

An unusual idea or an unexpected event might take you into an entirely new headspace. You might entertain the notion of a new kind of future for yourself — something more romantic or more spiritual/touchy-feely (call it whatever you like) — than you had previously thought.

Vikings star Travis Fimmel turns 47 today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You are certainly aware of the value of wealth in practical terms. However, you might receive a new interpretation of the energy of wealth and what is possible to achieve — for yourself or for others. This is illuminating and perhaps liberating.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Something might occur that makes you more deeply appreciate a friend or a group to which you might belong. You see this interaction benefits you in an almost idealistic way. Or perhaps this person (or group) inspires you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You might be admired for taking a stand on a certain issue or speaking up about something important to you. What you do will reveal a level of compassion, understanding and idealistic values that might inspire someone else.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Some kind of subtle shift might take place that prompts you to think about a different future for yourself. Or perhaps a different path. Or you might see how travel or further education can change your life. Whatever it is — it’s heartening.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

With Venus in your sign, you are gracious and diplomatic, which is a good thing because a boss, parent or someone in authority might do something that catches you off-guard. Ironically, whatever happens might open your eyes to a new way of doing things in the future.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

People admire you right now. In an unexpected way, something related to travel, further education, medicine or the law might catch you off-guard and open new worlds for you. This could be related to a friend or a group — or not. Be open to see what develops because it might be meaningful.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Be aware that people notice you. Perhaps this is because something unexpected benefits you, such as an inheritance, a bonus, a gift or indirect benefit through a partner or friend. Whatever happens might allow you to expand your world in a way that offers you a more promising future.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Listen to the ideas of partners, spouses and close friends because they might be the source of something that can lead to a positive shift in your life. It could be a deeper understanding or appreciation of what you have and who you are. Or it might show you a door you can open.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Something related to your health, job or even a pet might have the power to inspire you to consider something in a new light. You might not be content with old goals because, suddenly, new insights promise a refreshing level of consciousness.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might feel more inspired by romance or something related to kids that lifts you to a new level of appreciation and ambition. It’s as if you are suddenly seeing new possibilities or appreciating things in a new way, and it’s like an epiphany for you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your appreciation of the value of home and family might take on a new level of meaning. You might suddenly grasp it is something more important than you thought. Whatever happens opens your mind to a new awareness.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Travis Fimmel (1979) shares your birthday. You are imaginative, innovative and empathetic. You have astute analytical abilities. Exciting changes will bring increased personal freedom this year. Stay flexible. Let go of things that have held you back. Seek out new opportunities and be ready to act fast on them. Trust your intuition. Travel is likely.

Officers with the central traffic unit tried to pull over a Jeep and a Corvette at Lagimodiere Boulevard and Regent Avenue. The driver of the Corvette didn't stop and sped past police, eventually stopping in the 100 block of Johnson Avenue where the driver and passenger got out and ran.

The K9 unit tracked the suspects to the 100 block of Poplar Avenue. One of them was taken down by a police dog and received medical attention. Both were taken into custody.

Qualico celebrating 75 years of growth, success since its first development of 13 bungalows in River Heights

Aaron Epp 6 minute read 6:00 AM CDT

The first things staff and visitors see after ascending to the third floor of Qualico’s head office in Winnipeg are two statues — one each for company founders David and Katherine Friesen.

Flanking the doors to the integrated real estate company’s C-suite offices, the bronze sculptures are monuments to the couple and the vision, strength and integrity (as the plaques attached to the wooden pedestals attest) it took to start Qualico in 1951.

But imagine for a moment what it would be like if the sculptures were less reverent and more whimsical. Picture them outfitted with the kind of pull-string voice boxes one finds in a child’s toy. What might they say?

It’s possible one of David Friesen’s phrases would be: “No margin, no mission.”

Lawsuit targets pontoon boat operator, Sea-Doo driver, owner in fatal Whitemud River crash

Tyler Searle 4 minute read 6:32 PM CDT

The father of a 39-year-old Portage la Prairie woman killed in a boat crash on the Whitemud River is suing the men who were operating the involved watercraft, claiming they were negligent when navigating the winding waterway.

Ashley Danielle Rodgers died Aug. 10, 2024, when the Sea-Doo on which she was a passenger rounded a curve in the river and collided with an oncoming pontoon boat. She suffered blunt injuries and died, leaving behind two children.

“She was a vulnerable passenger on the back of a Sea-Doo which had no protection,” said lawyer Martin Pollock.

“It’s a very interesting case because it addresses water safety, it addresses boating safety, it’s an absolute nightmare to parents and loved ones when people are out on waterways. Rules have to be respected, especially going around blind curves.”

Trailblazer Kati Tabin brings PWHL championship trophy home to share success, inspire next generation

Grace Penner 6 minute read Saturday, Jul. 25, 2026

Starstruck kids and fans zigzagged throughout the rink, anxiously waiting to get an autograph from Kati Tabin and to see their role model on the same side of the glass.

Tabin, Montreal Victoire defender and Team Canada silver medallist, on Saturday came home to the rink where it all began, the Oakbank Community Club. She brought the PWHL championship trophy, the Walter Cup, won in her third season with the club, as well as her 2026 Milan Cortina Olympic medal.

The arena was packed to the brim with fans from all over coming to see Tabin — the local player who made history in women’s hockey. Hundreds of enthusiasts of all ages lined up with their Victoire or Team Canada merchandise, some waiting over two hours to see their idol.

Eight-year-old Loxley Cierzan came with her mother, Ainsley, and other family members to meet the one and only Tabin. Cierzan has loved seeing other girls grace the ice and play the competitive sport she adores. When the PWHL takeover stopped in Winnipeg in March, she not only got to watch the game but also a practice beforehand where Tabin signed her Victoire hat.

Bombers search for an offensive identity after Week 8 tailspin

Bombers search for an offensive identity after Week 8 tailspin

Ken Wiebe 7 minute read 6:30 PM CDT

Tommy Condell has been around long enough to know that criticism is part of the job, so you can understand why there were moments when the Winnipeg Blue Bombers offensive co-ordinator sounded a tad defensive when speaking to the media on Monday afternoon.

The Bombers were coming off a disappointing 52-30 loss to the Calgary Stampeders that dropped them to 4-3 on the season.

In many instances, a 30-point outburst would have been cause for celebration. But when you look under the hood of Friday’s outing — which included four interceptions for Bombers pivot Dru Brown — the picture wasn’t quite as rosy.

Compounding matters, star tailback Brady Oliveira went from making the longest touchdown run of his CFL career — a 45-yard scamper late in the third quarter — to being a mostly forgotten player in the fourth as the club mostly abandoned the run in an effort to rally from nine and eventually 12-point deficits.
