MOON ALERT: Caution! Wait until after 2:30 p.m. today to shop or make important decisions. The lunar eclipse in Pisces takes place at 11:18 p.m.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Even though there’s some strong energy with the full moon, you can hustle and get a lot done! Don’t go against authority figures. Keep to yourself. Someone younger might help you. Stay busy and you’ll be pleased with the results.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Co-workers are supportive, which is why you’ll be productive. However, romance and dealings with your kids might be challenged because of the full moon, which is an intense lunar eclipse. You’ll be forthright and direct in all your communications.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You might feel a tug-of-war between authority figures and the demands of home and family. You can’t keep both these areas happy, which means you have to make a choice. Your choice has to be in favour of home and family and your personal life.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Because the moon is your ruler, naturally you will feel the energy of the full moon. Be careful, because it could introduce an accident-prone tendency. Therefore, pay attention to everything you say and do. Think before you act.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Something to do with your finances might come to a head. As a result, you’ll see there’s a light at the end of the tunnel — and it’s not a train. This can be a productive day! You’re charming with everyone. Be aware of the moon alert.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

The sun is in your sign opposing the moon in Pisces creating the lunar eclipse. This could make you feel something has evolved to a point of fruition. It could pertain to your sense of responsibility for others. It might also deal with a shift in your values.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a productive day! You’re ambitious and the energy of the full moon makes you want to tackle unfinished business because you have lots of brainpower. (Actually, you always have lots of brainpower, which is why many of you are in the legal profession.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Issues related to a friend or member of a group might come to a head. If so, you can expect a resolution — one way or another. Whatever happens will probably make you look good in the eyes of everyone, because your reputation is solid this year. Lucky you!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Dealings with bosses, parents and authority figures might be challenged because of the full-moon energy. You can’t ignore their demands. This could relate to a dispute about your property or shared expenses. Whatever the case, be charming and conciliatory. (Do your friendly-breezy thang.)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Pay attention to everything you say and do, because this is a mildly accident-prone day for you due to the lunar eclipse. You might find yourself in an argument with someone. Be smart and steer clear of controversial issues. Be patient with spouses, partners and friends.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Financial matters might come to a head. This could be about issues related to a residential move, a job change or both. Or it could be about something incidental. But when money is involved, nothing is incidental, is it? Make sure you have the right facts.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

The full moon is in your sign, which can make dealings with those closest to you a bit stressed. Be accommodating, but be aware you can be productive and get a lot done!

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Aaron Paul (1979) shares your birthday. You are intelligent, tenacious and articulate. You’re also inventive, practical and grounded. This year is the final year of a nine-year cycle. Let go of people, places and things that have held you back. Do some internal and external housecleaning. Focus on being more compassionate and loving to others.

Towing company hands stolen car back, but not to owner

By Matthew Frank 4 minute read Friday, Oct. 9, 2026

A Manitoba man says he is dumbfounded after his car was stolen, impounded by a Winnipeg towing company and given back — to someone that wasn’t him.

Cody Lamb lives in the western Manitoba community of Douglas, about 18 kilometres east of Brandon, but spends weeks away from home working on oil rigs in Alberta.

The 24-year-old says on Sept. 11, while away for work, he heard from his girlfriend who told him his car wasn’t in their driveway. Lamb reported the car stolen to Brandon RCMP the same day.

After filing the report, he heard from Steinbach RCMP on Oct. 1 that his car was recovered that day in the community of Mitchell, roughly five km west of Steinbach.

Phoneless concert a beautiful chance to bask in moment

Outside the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, digital billboards flashed fans their singular photo op for the night: “I took this photo before I saw Phoebe Bridgers: The Lost Tour 2026.”

It is, as it is for so many other people, my only documentation of a concert by one of my favourite artists. The American singer-songwriter — who I discovered at the Winnipeg Folk Festival in 2018 — has had a meteoric rise in the past few years, winning three Grammys in 2024 as one third of Boygenius, the indie-rock supergroup rounded out by Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker, and opening for Taylor Swift on select dates of her titanic Eras Tour.

Now, Bridgers is touring in support of Lost Weekend, her third album and first since 2020’s Punisher. It’s a feat of a record, a richly textured meditation on loss and grief, written in the aftermath of the death of her dad, with whom she had a complicated relationship.

So she is in a position to not only play multiple sold-out arena shows, but also insist that those shows be phone-free.

A weekly lap around the NHL by Free Press hockey writers Ken Wiebe and Mike McIntyre

The New York Islanders are first-overall. The Calgary Flames are in the league basement.

We’re talking about goaltending, specifically the metric of “goals against above expected” as tracked by the Money Puck website which factors in shot quality and location and is a much better measure than traditional numbers such as goals-against-average and even save percentage, which can be heavily influenced by team factors.

In a nutshell, you want to be as high as possible on this list, suggesting your masked men are doing their job by stopping everything they should — and hopefully a few more. The lower you are in the 32-team league, the more likely you have a leaky crease.

Holiday feasts often reflect the latest fads and trends influencing how we eat.

This Thanksgiving’s table is likely to feature more Canadian content than it might otherwise as a point of national pride.

In the recent past, the carb-free craze has made cauliflower a substitute for the mashed potatoes on some family spreads. Some have gone meatless, while others have added more. Still others offer gluten-free, dairy-free or fat-free alternatives.

Nowadays, it seems consumers can’t get enough protein. Desmond Sobool, deputy chief economist Farm Credit Canada, told a recent economic update for the agri-food sector there are two converging influences in play.
