MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or important decisions from 3 a.m. until 6 a.m. today. The moon is in Virgo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You will be impulsive when handling your money today. Impulse-shopping and sudden decisions about financial matters will occur. Be wise and hedge your bets by keeping your receipts and leaving a door open in all your negotiations.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Today is full of unexpected surprises that will delight you! You might have a chance to shmooz with someone or enjoy their company. You might also buy something to wear that you really like. In conversations with others, you will be bolder and more original.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

A secret love affair might begin for some of you today. Meanwhile, many of you will have a chance to enjoy yourself in a private way by going off by yourself or having some solitude in a way that is pleasing and restful. (It’s an unexpected treat for you.)

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You might meet a new friend today or someone you know might surprise you in a delightful way by doing or saying something you least expect. You might join a group or be asked to join an organization. Some minor surprises dealing with friends and groups are in store for you because today is full of little surprises.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might have an unexpected chance to impress someone in a position of authority — a boss, parent, teacher, VIP or member the police. This can work two ways, which means someone in authority might suddenly do something unexpected that impresses you! (It might be a flirtation.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

A sudden opportunity to travel might drop into your lap today. Others might have an unexpected opportunity to take a course or get further training or learning in a field that appeals. New romance with someone “different” might begin because this is an exciting day!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Keep your pockets open because gifts, goodies and favours from others can come your way today. You might even receive cash. Others might explore new romance that is suddenly passionate and memorable! Woot! (This is not a boring day.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

A partner or close friend will surprise you in some way today. They might say or do something you least expect. They might even suggest a new arrangement in the relationship? Alternatively, they might introduce you to someone new and exciting. Stay open and flexible.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Surprising news related to your health or a pet might occur today. Those of you at work today (or ready to tackle a specific task) might be pleasantly surprised at how something unfolds. An unexpected reward might await you?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

A surprise invitation to a social event might come your way today. If so, this window of opportunity will be brief so you will have to act fast. Romance and flirtations will also hold surprises for you. Meanwhile, parents should keep their eyes on their kids today because things are unpredictable.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Stock the fridge because you might spontaneously entertain at home today. You might also buy something high-tech or perhaps some modern art for where you live. Keep your receipts in case you change your mind because everything is happening fast and “on the run.” A real-estate deal might also be surprising.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a pleasant day because you are bound to encounter new faces, see new places and hear new ideas because something unusual will make this day memorable. Spontaneous short trips are likely.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Tattoo artist Kat Von D (1982) shares your birthday today. You are highly individualistic and a perfectionist. You march to the beat of your own drum. Service to others is your theme this year, especially with family. This means you must take care of yourself so you are a strong resource for yourself and others. Invest in the relationships you value. Tap into your personal creativity and hobbies.

Chief justice’s last act ‘revolutionary’ step forward

Niigaan Sinclair 4 minute read Saturday, Jul. 4, 2026

Weeks before being nominated to the Supreme Court of Canada, Manitoba Court of King’s Bench Chief Justice Glenn Joyal rendered one of the most remarkable decisions in this province’s history.

You may not have heard about it, but it was a big one — and not just in the financial sense but in a change-the-face-of-this-province kind of way.

In October 2022, three First Nations chiefs joined with the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs and launched a proposed class-action lawsuit seeking $2.1 billion in damages for three decades of harms by child and family services agencies run by the provincial and federal governments.

Joyal presided over the case in one of his last duties as Manitoba’s top judge.

Tavern United closes downtown location

Zoe Pierce 2 minute read Friday, Jul. 3, 2026

For the crowd leaving a Winnipeg Jets or Sea Bears game, big name concert or just a night out downtown, Tavern United was often a familiar stop across from Canada Life Centre.

That longtime routine has now ended with the sports bar’s permanent closure. A notice posted on the door of the Tavern United chain location thanks its now former customers.

“We are grateful for your loyalty, support and memories shared over the years. We hope to welcome you nearby at Resto 12 or at any of our other Tavern United locations across Winnipeg,” the sign reads.

No reason for the closure was listed.

Flooding leaves rail line near Roblin teetering

Morgan Modjeski 3 minute read Friday, Jul. 3, 2026

Richard Suidak said it will be a long time before the trains near Roblin get rolling again after a portion of CN Rail track was left hanging following severe flooding in Manitoba this week.

Suidak, a 67-year-old land owner who has a cattle herd, had a front-row seat Tuesday as the earth beneath the railway track, located between Roblin and Deepdale, gave way in front of him.

“I was just watching the waterfall coming over … and then I heard this bang,” he said. “I looked at the water, and I just jumped on my quad, put it in high and got out of there as fast I could.”

He said floodwater filled the valley where the track had been established and said he saw kilometres of water being held back by the earth before it gave way.

Welcome to Viggopeg

Ken Wiebe 6 minute read Friday, Jul. 3, 2026

Viggomania ran wild this week. And the Winnipeg Jets latest first-round pick did everything in his power to keep the hype train rolling.

By the time Viggo Bjorck skated off the ice on Friday at Hockey For All Centre and signed a bunch of autographs and posed for photos, it was abundantly clear that the eighth overall pick in the 2026 NHL Draft had left a positive impression on the Jets fan base.

Although it’s important to remember where we are in the calendar, Bjorck showcased his skillset on numerous occasions, whether it was making a deft pass up the middle to Jacob Julien to open the scoring during the scrimmage or burying a dish from Alfons Freij to show off his finishing ability.

Bjorck also provided a glimpse of his competitive nature when he got involved in a discussion over whether or not the goals scored during the shootout held between periods would count in this battle between Team White and Team Blue.

Canada makes the grade at World Cup

Jerrad Peters 5 minute read Yesterday at 7:34 PM CDT

Canada’s summer soccer semester is over and the report card is in.

Don’t worry — everyone passed, though certain subjects proved more difficult to grasp than others. But that’s often the case, and the good news is that education is a lifelong endeavour. There will be many more opportunities to learn.

If there’s bad news — and we have to look pretty hard to find it — it’s likely to do with the way things ended. Yes, it can be quite the grind, but there’s something to be said for a strong finish.

That didn’t come on Saturday, when Morocco scored three second-half goals to send the Canadian men’s national team packing from the 2026 World Cup. Having outplayed its (much) higher-ranked opponent through most of the initial frame, Canada seemed to lose its hyperfocus after the restart.
