Beloved French-Canadian TV channel MusiquePlus is returning — this time on the algorithm.

TikTok announced Wednesday that the Quebecois pop culture and music brand will return via the social media app.

MusiquePlus, the Francophone counterpart to MuchMusic, launched in 1986 and became a go-to channel for showing local talent. It went off air in 2019.

A press release says the reborn MusiquePlus will feature a new generation of VJs and creators, with the goal of amplifying Quebec’s creative voices.

The new content will be produced as part of a creative partnership with Quebec-based production company Attraction and Motion Entertainment.

MusiquePlus will launch on TikTok on June 11.

In 2021, MuchMusic relaunched as a social-first platform with a new roster of VJs. It currently has 5.5 million followers on TikTok.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 3, 2026.

Collisions send people to hospital; one fatality

Five people are in hospital following a two-vehicle collision on Monday at the corner of Pembina Highway and Plaza Drive in which three pedestrians were struck.

On Sept. 28, just after 4:30 p.m., a Ford Fusion was travelling northbound on Pembina Highway through the Plaza Drive intersection with a green light when it was struck by a westbound Honda Fit that failed to stop for a red light at Plaza Drive. The Honda Fit mounted the sidewalk, striking three young children who were with an adult.

The three children were transported to hospital in stable condition with minor injuries. The driver of the Honda, a woman in her 70s, and the passenger, a man in his 80s, were transported to hospital in unstable condition. They were both upgraded to stable condition. The driver was issued a ticket under the Highway Traffic Act.

The Winnipeg Police Service’s Traffic Division is investigating.

Sisters relieved hospital takes accountability after mother’s death

Scott Billeck 5 minute read 6:39 PM CDT

Eight months after losing their mother, two Winnipeg sisters say an internal hospital review has finally given them something they had been seeking since her death: accountability.

Chelsea Mann and Samantha Burns said St. Boniface Hospital officials acknowledged mistakes were made in the care of their mother, Judy Burns, during a recent meeting to discuss the findings of a critical incident review into her death.

The acknowledgement marked a significant departure from an earlier meeting with hospital officials, when they felt their concerns were largely dismissed.

Burns, 68, died on Jan. 21, three days after being admitted, after experiencing rectal bleeding.
