ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Because your communication skills are so excellent, it’s a great day for those of you who teach, write, sell, market or act because your words will be like gold. You’ll have practical, doable ideas, and at the same time, you’ll be creative and optimistic about the future!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

This is a strong money day for you. You have practical ideas and you’re willing to work hard to make money. Meanwhile, a family connection or something related to real estate might boost your income? This is a work-hard/party-hard day.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

The moon is in your sign dancing with both Saturn and Jupiter, which brings a lovely balance to your energy. Someone older or more experienced might have wise advice for you. Meanwhile, your enthusiasm and big ideas will carry the day!

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

This is a busy time for you. You might be redecorating at home and entertaining. Physical exercise is important while fiery Mars is in your sign. (Use some of that pent-up energy building within you.) Research will go very well. Listen to hidden ideas that might boost your income.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your interaction with a friend could be meaningful to you. This person might be someone older or more experienced. They might also be a member of a group, and whatever happens they will likely benefit you and encourage you. Why not share your moneymaking ideas?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

The sun and Mercury are in your sign and the moon is at the top of your chart which means someone might help you. If so, this will be obvious to others, because whatever you do is high-viz. Accept the help of someone older or more experienced because it might be a financial benefit.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

In one way, you want to be low-key. But another part of you wants to do something different for an adventure. Go someplace you’ve never been before — a new café or restaurant. Check out a different neighbourhood. It will make you feel good!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

The wealth and resources of your partner or someone else might benefit you. Listen to advice that comes your way, especially if it’s work-related. Someone might want to help you, because you’re making such a good impression on your world.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Be co-operative with others. Someone might have advice about raising or educating kids, playing a sport or honing an artistic technique. They might have advice about socializing and where to go on a vacation? After all, you are the traveller of the zodiac.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You’re in a practical frame of mind, which is why you’ll be productive at work. You might also research information related to your health or a pet. Or perhaps you will help an older family member? Wealth and resources from others might come to you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a playful day! It’s also the perfect time to use your creative talents because you’re willing to practise and hone your skills, which is necessary if you want to improve your abilities. You’re also keen to socialize with a group. (You love your friends.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Whatever happens at home or perhaps within your family will probably benefit you. Someone might have advice for you. They might help you. Someone might even show you how to expand where you live?

Be careful with old flame’s power games

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I just ran into the short-haired girl I was crazy in love with back in high school. She wore all black clothes, kind of looked like a guy, but used dark lipstick and dyed her hair different weird colours. She always looked like a scary, powerful woman and she loved to tease me, because I was shy back then.

She was standing there in the sun, and I liked her new look — blue-black hair, dressed in a black suit, hot-looking and powerful as ever! But after we started talking, she suggested we go catch up over a drink and lunch.

After eating and drinking a lot on my tab, she was a bit tipsy and confessed she already has a boyfriend she quite likes, because he doesn’t bow down to her.

To get even, I told her I had a girlfriend, “but that could change.” Then I paid the tab. She finally liked something about me!

‘Make eye contact’: police urge extra caution amid spate of vehicle-pedestrian collisions

Scott Billeck 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 6:00 PM CDT

Winnipeg police are urging motorists and pedestrians to exercise extra caution at intersections following a rash of collisions across the city, including one that claimed the life of a woman.

“Having the right of way does not make you safe,” Insp. Helen Peters of the Winnipeg Police Service’s traffic division said during a news conference Monday morning.

“This isn’t just about who’s at fault. This is about keeping each other safe and doing everything we can as drivers, motor vehicles or pedestrians to help each other out and navigate our roads.”

Police said a woman in her 80s was struck by a vehicle that failed to stop at a stop sign while turning right onto eastbound Roblin Boulevard from Hunterspoint Road on Sept. 29.

Waters remain murky in unchartered Hellebuyck trade request territory

Ken Wiebe 4 minute read Yesterday at 6:18 PM CDT

ST. LOUIS — The thing about being in unchartered waters is that the answer to the next question isn’t always readily apparent either above or below the surface.

Winnipeg Jets head coach Scott Arniel has been doing his best to ensure the upcoming two-game road trip against Central Division opponents doesn’t include a three-ring circus. But with news coming over the weekend that the suspension for goalie Connor Hellebuyck is set to expire on Friday, the club has to prepare for the next step in that process.

The problem, as Arniel conceded during his session on Monday afternoon before the team departed for Missouri, is that some of the hypotheticals need to be eliminated from the equation before the proper response can be determined.

“When it comes to Helly’s scenario, honestly I don’t really have a lot of information,” said Arniel. “I know everybody knows (about) Friday. That’s all we know.”

Salvation Army calls on Winnipeggers to donate merchandise as sales soar

Kelly-Anne Riess 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

The Salvation Army is taking donated merchandise from other regions to stock its Winnipeg thrift stores as increasing sales outpace local donations.

Retail activity at the charity’s eight Winnipeg locations grew more than 10 per cent year over year during several months, from January through April, and again in June.

Although local donations remain strong, they haven’t kept pace with demand, prompting the organization to supplement inventory with merchandise from elsewhere.

Ted Troughton, managing director of the Salvation Army’s thrift store operations, said rising living costs are bringing in new customers.

Would Canada actually spy on Cuba?

Would Canada actually spy on Cuba?

Peter McKenna 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

The Globe and Mail recently ran a series of stories on how “Havana syndrome” negatively impacted a number of diplomats working at the Canadian embassy in Cuba. As of this writing, there has been unusual radio silence on the topic from Mark Carney’s governing Liberals.

The reportage also linked the so-called “sonic attacks” or what the Americans call “anomalous health incidents” (and the attendant concussion-like symptoms) to a Russian high-frequency microwave weapon. More importantly, the Globe maintained that Moscow’s retaliation against Canadian officials in Havana was because of their close co-operation with U.S. intelligence agencies in spying on the Cuban government.

Some of the articles claimed that high-tech satellite gear, which was brought into Cuba covertly by U.S. officials, was installed on the roofs of the residences of Canadian diplomats in Havana. Presumably, Canadian officials — or what are sometimes referred to as officers or agents working under the Global Security Reporting Program (GSRP) within the Department of Global Affairs — were using this satellite technology to collect intelligence on human sources in Cuba.

The secret information was eventually passed on to Canada’s partners in the so-called “Five Eyes” alliance (the U.S., Australia, Britain and New Zealand). It’s worth pointing out that this wouldn’t have been the first time Canadian officials in Cuba were funnelling sensitive intelligence to their U.S. counterparts.
