Tread carefully, because it’s a moon alert for most of this day. (See above.) Channel your energies into creative activities as this day favours the arts, fun socializing and playful times with kids.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Steer clear of controversial topics as this is a poor day for important decisions since most of this day is a moon alert. (See above.) Focus on home and family. Relax at home among familiar surroundings if you can do so.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Store up some physical energy so you can blow off any pent-up steam that might be building within you. Pay attention to everything you say and do to avoid accidents. Relax and entertain at home.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You have a strong need to share your ideas. This could relate to something financial because you are focused right now on earnings, cash flow and personal wealth. (Because you can get richer this year!)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Enjoy physical, competitive sports and activities with friends and groups. Be careful, because you might want to shop for beautiful things as well — clothing, art objects and jewelry — which is a poor idea. Do not do this during the moon alert. (See above.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Although this is generally an excellent time for you to shop for wardrobe goodies — not right now. Most of this day is a moon alert. (See above.). Nevertheless, your ambition is strong. You’re going to go after what you want! A discussion with someone younger could be beneficial.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a popular time for you, and this is a wonderful day to shmooz with others. Because there is a moon alert for most of this day, it’s a poor day for important decisions and shopping. However, it’s a great day to relax and enjoy the company of friends.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It’s important to know you make an excellent impression on others at this time, which is why this is a good week to go after what you want in terms of personal appearances, interviews and asking authority figures for permission or approval. However, this is not the day. See moon alert above.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Avoid financial decisions and definitely shopping for anything other than food and gas, because most of this day is a moon alert. (See above.) However, relations with authority figures are excellent. On the other hand, be patient with partners, spouses and close friends.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a tricky day, because the moon is in your sign, which gives you a slight advantage. Nevertheless, it’s a moon alert for most of this day. You have the energy to work, but be careful — agree to nothing important. Don’t volunteer for anything. Restrict spending to food and gas.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You want to play! However, you might feel tension building up within you because tomorrow the full moon will be in your sign. Tension will likely arise between you and spouses, partners and close friends. Explore the arts and creative activities.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is the perfect day to hang out with friends and take things easy. If you choose to work hard, stick with a situation that requires few decisions. Most of this day is a moon alert, which is a poor time for new directions and new ideas. Restrict spending to food and gas.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Former U.S. first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (1929-94) shares your birthday. You’re competitive and driven. You’re charming, multitalented and full of intellectual energy. This is the final year of a nine-year cycle. Let go of the people, places and things from the past that held you back. Do some internal and external housecleaning. Focus on being compassionate and loving.

City has plenty of frozen dessert oases to discover

AV Kitching 6 minute read Updated: 10:42 AM CDT

No matter the weather, ice cream is always a welcome addition to the day.

It’s a rite of passage as, at the slightest hint of a thaw, Winnipeggers descend in droves, heeding the siren call of institutions such as Sargent Sundae (2053 Portage Ave.) and Bridge Drive-In (766 Jubilee Ave. and 1680 Main St.) that slide open their shutters any time from late March to early April, ready to welcome dedicated connoisseurs seeking their first taste of the season.

We’re blessed with an abundance of ice-cream joints in this city, ranging from brick-and-mortar storefronts to mobile carts and pop-up stalls, all serving generous scoops of childhood faves alongside rather more innovative flavours.

With so many dairy bars and frozen dessert parlours dotted around, there’s no need to choose just one spot to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Anishinaabe Days teepee poles vandalized

Nicole Buffie 4 minute read Sunday, Jul. 26, 2026

An act of vandalism to a teepee at the Treaty One Development Corp’s Anishinaabe Days did not stop the celebrations from continuing over the weekend.

Someone deliberately cut the poles used to erect the site’s teepee before the event began, Treaty One executive director Jason Whitford said Sunday.

The family responsible for overseeing the teepee and its construction at the site, Naawi-Oodena  on Kenaston Boulevard, went to the site on Friday to erect the teepee when they noticed someone had taken a saw and cut all 15 of its poles in half.

“They were stored in a safe place, and they were stored properly as per protocol,” Whitford said. “They were in an area where there was no construction so they were isolated from any activity.”

Visitors from across Canada make Somerset restaurant’s social media challenge a success

Zoe Pierce 3 minute read Saturday, Jul. 25, 2026

There may not be another restaurant in Manitoba that can say it has welcomed visitors from as many communities across the province and beyond as the Somerset Food Bar & Lounge has this summer.

In just over a two week span, visitors from more than 100 towns have come out to the family-owned restaurant tucked away in Somerset, a community of roughly 450 people in the Pembina Valley 130 kilometres southwest of Winnipeg.

It started as a challenge, “60 Towns in 60 Days,” where the restaurant wanted to document how many different places they could reach, as it often sees people travelling across Canada stop at the restaurant. The goal was also to encourage people to make a drive they normally wouldn’t.

“The more we started sharing, the more people really started getting behind it, and it turned into this really big thing fairly quickly,” said Jay Friesen, restaurant manager.

Manitoba Hydro’s energy plan set to be scrutinized

Chris Kitching 6 minute read Yesterday at 6:00 AM CDT

Manitoba Hydro is set to face questions and concerns over its plan for the province’s future energy needs, which includes proposed natural gas-powered turbines in Brandon and Indigenous-owned wind farms.

The Public Utilities Board, an arm’s-length regulator, will begin six weeks of hearings Monday into the 10-year blueprint and potential ways to satisfy electricity demand, while Hydro grapples with a projected energy shortfall, debt of $25 billion and aging infrastructure.

“The development plan reflects the best available information and analysis of how Manitoba Hydro can meet growing energy demand, while balancing factors we know are important to our customers, including cost, reliability and the environment,” Peter Chura, a spokesman for the Crown corporation, told the Free Press.

“We are confident in our analysis and that we’ve appropriately balanced reliability, affordability, safety and risk.”

Students continue to criticize handling of MITT’s closure

Morgan Modjeski 5 minute read Yesterday at 6:00 AM CDT

Students at a Manitoba trade college say their education has been hampered as a result of its impending closure and they blame government for a poor transition.

The provincial government announced in January it would close the Manitoba Institute of Trades and Technology because it was no longer financially viable following the federal government’s decision to cut the number of international students allowed to study in Canada.

Officials have said students would remain the top priority as 19 programs from MITT are set to be absorbed by Red River College Polytech.

Kieran Smith, an electrical applications student at MITT, said it feels like those in charge “don’t really care.”
