ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Stay light on your feet, because this is a fast-changing day. Be ready for anything. New faces and new places might intrigue you. As the day wears on, you can enjoy socializing with others as well as checking out sporting events and playful activities with kids. Romance is blessed!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

This is a restless day for you. Those of you at work will enjoy the support of helpful co-workers. Sporting events, fun socializing and playful times with children will please you. (You will be unusually forthright and direct in your communications.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

A friend might surprise you. Alternatively, you might meet a real character? Later in the day, your involvement with a group will bring you joy. You might also learn something new or have an experience that expands your world. Great day for socializing and romance.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You’re high-viz! Meanwhile, relations with bosses, parents, authority figures and the police might hold a surprise for you. Be aware of this and don’t push your luck. However, as this day wears on, you might see ways to boost your income or purchase something special.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Surprising opportunities to travel might fall into your lap. (This is an upbeat, friendly day.) Enjoy talking to others, especially people from different backgrounds. Seek out opportunities that expand your world and teach you something new and exciting.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Discussions about how to share something or perhaps how to divide an inheritance will go well. Initially, something or someone might surprise you or catch you off-guard. (Be ready for this.) But later you’ll have a warm feeling in your tummy about everything.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A partner, spouse or close friend might surprise you. Or you might meet someone new and unusual — perhaps someone in the general public? Later, your involvement with a group of people (or perhaps a friend) will be rewarding.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your work routine will be interrupted by something unexpected. Could be good or not so good. Take care to avoid accidents and equipment breakdowns. Later in the day, bosses and people in authority will favour you. Work-related travel is likely.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a marvellous day to get out and socialize. Enjoy vacation times, sporting events, fun activities with kids and romantic outings. Because it’s easy for you to feel friendly toward others, the world will feel friendly to you. What goes around, comes around.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Despite your desire for adventure, you might want to relax at home and enjoy time in familiar surroundings. Nevertheless, your home routine might be interrupted by something. Small appliances might break down or a minor outage could occur. Someone surprising might knock at the door.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Pay attention to everything you say and do because this is a mildly accident-prone day for you. However, you will enjoy meeting new faces and encountering unusual people. Later in the day, you’ll enjoy good times with partners, spouses and close friends. The world is your oyster!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Keep an eye on your money and your possessions, because something unexpected could impact them, especially earlier in the day. Sporting events and social outings will appeal. Money and favours from others might come to you. Later in the day, you might discover some moneymaking ideas or encounter someone who has excellent advice for you.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Cameron Diaz (1972) shares your birthday. You are perceptive, ambitious and curious. You’re also an organizer with excellent analytical skills.

Reversing Manitoba’s moose decline

Hank Hristienko 4 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

As Manitoba’s retired provincial moose manager, I have watched our moose population plummet from historic highs to a state of systemic vulnerability. Reversing this decline, which has seen numbers drop from 45,000 during the 1960s to fewer than 20,000 today, will require balancing the conservation needs of moose, Section 35 constitutional treaty rights, licensed hunter expectations and economic development.

To avert further attrition, all stakeholders, including Manitoba Natural Resources, must accept responsibility for their part in this decline, with industrial and recreational development acting as the primary drivers.

This long-overdue discussion must not devolve into a debate over competing hunting rights; instead, it must focus entirely on building long-term population resilience. Wildlife management must evolve alongside the changing landscapes and dynamics that development brings. We can no longer practise the same methods and hope for a better result. Immediate action is required.

As long as moose are legally managed as a “natural resource,” they will inevitably be viewed through the lens of a commodity rather than a vulnerable species in need of protection. For any population to remain stable or grow, total mortality cannot exceed recruitment — the survival of calves to breeding age. If mortality outpaces recruitment, decline is inevitable.

Those on the front lines of coping with the city’s deepening homelessness and drug crises express concern at civic election candidates’ lack of attention to the issues

Scott Billeck 15 minute read 6:00 AM CDT

Just steps from city hall, two significant challenges facing Winnipeg play out every day.

But despite the proximity to the ongoing homelessness and toxic drug crises that have become woven into the fabric of Main Street, front-line service organizations worry civic leaders have lost sight of what needs to be done.

Marion Willis, executive director of St. Boniface Street Links, says the situation has deteriorated under current Mayor Scott Gillingham and council, with inadequate support for outreach services and an unwillingness by the city to take greater responsibility for addressing homelessness.

“If you look at the last four years, I haven’t seen things get better in our sector. I’ve seen things become amplified in the most negative of ways,” Willis says.

Possibility of Hellebuyck’s return grows each day as pay slips away

Mike McIntyre 7 minute read Wednesday, Oct. 14, 2026

CHICAGO — Buckle up, folks. The next plot twist in the ongoing soap opera between the Winnipeg Jets and Connor Hellebuyck could be a doozy.

Let’s start with a few cold, hard facts. Or, if you prefer: “Previously on As the Hellebuyck Turns…”

The franchise goaltender, with five years remaining on a contract extension he willingly signed with Winnipeg in 2023, refused to report to training camp last month as he awaits word on a trade request made at the end of last season. He’s the first NHL player in more than a quarter century to essentially go on strike.

The Jets are under no obligation to move Hellebuyck, but have indicated they would try to accommodate him if another team meets their needs. General manager Kevin Cheveldayoff has made it clear he needs to “get this right” and wants a haul for a three-time Vezina Trophy winner and one-time Hart Trophy recipient.

Chronic kidney disease must be recognized

Carrie Thibodeau 4 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

Canada needs a strong plan of action to tackle chronic kidney disease.

Canada is facing a looming health crisis that remains largely unaddressed and invisible at the policy and health system level. More than four million Canadians live with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and 50,000 currently receive dialysis or are living with a transplant, both life-sustaining but burdensome treatments.

With no cure, CKD profoundly impacts quality of life, contributing to lost income, overall poor health, and uncertainty about the future. The implications of CKD extend far beyond patients and families. CKD is now the 11th leading cause of death in Canada and one of our most expensive chronic diseases. Health-care costs exceed $11.7 billion annually, with most expenses incurred in the later stages of the disease, particularly dialysis and transplantation.

By 2050, the total cost burden of CKD is projected to rise to $17.6 billion and an estimated 6.2 million Canadians will be affected, driven by an aging population and rising rates of diabetes and high blood pressure.
