TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

This is a great day to improve your home or expand it somehow. Or you might explore ideas about a different dwelling? Listen to the advice of someone older or more experienced. Look for ways to improve family connections because you can.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You’re filled with optimism and the power of positive thinking! Discussions about home and family will go well. You might pursue household repairs. Decisions to socialize and have fun will please you. An older friend might benefit you. Listen to what is offered!

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

This is an excellent day for financial decisions and discussions about speculation and investments. (Admittedly, something might look too good to be true, so be aware of this.) Nevertheless, someone in power, a boss or an older adviser might share some wisdom with you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is an amazing day because the moon is in your sign lined up with lucky Jupiter. This is why you feel generous, optimistic and sociable! Be aware that you will get what you give. (Important to know this.) Explore opportunities in publishing, the media, higher education and the law.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a feel-good day for you! The sun and your ruler Mercury are in your sign boosting your confidence and communication skills. (You can attract money to you.) You might also feel competitive with a friend or group. Basically, a warm feeling in your tummy makes you a winner.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Conflicting energies are in the air. Because you might want to be low-key and private, you might choose to work alone or stay at home. However, your public is calling! This is a great day to shmooz with friends, groups and organizations. How you handle this is your call.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You make a wonderful impression on parents, bosses and VIPs, because they see you as wise, generous and successful. (Great! Appearances are everything.) Enjoy this great press. Talk to friends and groups. This is a solid day to make goals for the future.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a winning day for you! The sun at the top of your chart makes you look great in the eyes of others. Furthermore, opportunities to travel and expand your world through further education, medicine, the law or publishing are abundant. Lucky you!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Discussions about inheritances and how to divide or share something will go well. In fact, you’ll be laughing all the way to the bank. Meanwhile, travel plans and opportunities to explore publishing, the media, medicine and the law are excellent. Doors will open for you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

In one way, you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. (It is what it is.) Nevertheless, this is a productive day for you! You can get a lot done. Travel will beckon. Partners and friends will be behind you 100 per cent.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

We know this year you have a chance to improve your job or find a better one. With this in mind, this is one of the best days for you to pursue opportunities to do so! Work-related travel will delight some of you. Be ready to act.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Singer, songwriter Pink (1979) shares your birthday. You are determined and have strong convictions. You are dynamic, confident and organized. This year is the completion of a cycle. Take inventory of your life. Let go of people, places and things that hold you back. Do some internal and external housecleaning. Relax and commune with nature.

Education student designs lesson plans to take a bite out of food marketing

Maggie Macintosh 4 minute read Monday, Sep. 7, 2026

Instead of apples, Emma Caronte is handing out lesson plans on local food history to Manitoba teachers this back-to-school season.

The undergraduate researcher spent her summer break creating a social studies unit that investigates food guide evolution, marketing tactics and how honey dill sauce became a pantry staple on the Prairies.

“I want students to develop a greater interest in food and what outside influences affect their choices and what we consider ‘healthy,’” said Caronte, a final-year education student at the University of Manitoba.

She is advertising her 112-page project as a user-friendly resource for classroom teachers and “a fun sub plan” targeted at Grade 6, 7, 8 and 9.

Time to ditch role as ex’s emotional crutch

Maureen Scurfield 5 minute read Yesterday at 2:00 AM CDT

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I mourn the end of summer every fall, but this year it’s far worse. My partner (a man, like me) broke up with me and my menagerie of animals.

The hardest part is that he still calls me before he goes to sleep at night — to see if I’m OK, and to tell me essentially, to buck up! Nothing like losing somebody and being told to be happy about it by the exact person you’ve lost.

He goes on about his new life and the people he’s meeting, and sometimes I just have to hang up on him.

Why does he bother calling? It seems like he maybe doesn’t know if he’s completely through with me yet, so he’s using me as a crutch. (Do I sound bitter?) What can I do?

Why our democracy depends on your vote

Erna Buffie 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

Some years ago, I did some pretty in-depth research on ancient Athens and its democratic system of government as part of a documentary film I was pitching. It was actually a lot of fun, because I was looking at ways their democratic beliefs and practices were both similar to and different from ours.

Some of the differences were quite striking, such as the fact that only Athenian-born males 18 years of age and over could participate. Or the fact their executive branch was selected by a totally random lottery system — a system one expert described as akin to picking names out of a phone book.

Then there was the practice of ostracism, a procedure I found particularly attractive. Essentially, every year the citizens of Athens chose a political figure who was becoming too powerful or pushing for a more authoritarian regime and voted to banish him from the city for 10 years.

Needless to say, I can think of quite a few politicians I’d like to see subjected to that procedure.

Parts of River Heights hammered by storm

Melissa Martin 5 minute read Monday, Sep. 7, 2026

A powerful storm cut a swath of destruction through River Heights on Sunday, leaving much of the area without power.

Nobody was hurt in the storm.

By the time it subsided, parts of the quiet neighbourhood, especially Borebank and Lindsay streets between Grant and Taylor, had been ravaged: power lines downed, Manitoba Hydro poles toppled, trees splintered and crashed down on vehicles and homes.

In one case, a vehicle was flipped into a yard and sat under a partially downed tree. Shingles were stripped from roofs. Some residents described looking out during the storm and seeing power lines ablaze and the blue glow of electricity arcing over their backyards.

Carney warns of tough times ahead in national address as retaliatory tariffs begin

Nick Murray, The Canadian Press 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 4:10 PM CDT

OTTAWA - Canada's pivot away from the United States will "come at a cost" but the alternative would be far worse, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Tuesday.

Carney made the remarks in a video released just hours after his government made good on a promise to implement retaliatory tariffs on the United States. Those tariffs respond to American duties imposed last month by U.S. President Donald Trump, after the two countries could not come to an agreement to settle some outstanding trade irritants.

Carney spent much of the video laying out Canada's response to Trump's protectionist trade policies, including expanding trade with other countries and building more capacity domestically.

But he said it "won't be easy."
