You are not alone

Recent reports involving a Winnipeg firefighter with a history of criminal harassment and protection order violations, and a Winnipeg police officer charged in a physical and sexual intimate partner violence assault investigation, should prompt a broader conversation about accountability when allegations of gender-based violence involve individuals in positions of public trust.

I wrote a letter to the editor to the Free Press that was published Aug. 4 about the WFPS case, and I believe those comments are relevant to this moment as well.

Rather than reiterate those points, I would like to address those impacted by gender-based violence.

Hellebuyck standoff caused by… Nathan MacKinnon?

Mike McIntyre 6 minute read Friday, Sep. 18, 2026

Looking for someone to blame in the Connor Hellebuyck fiasco and cast as public enemy No. 1? How about long-time Winnipeg Jets nemesis Nathan MacKinnon?

Allow us to explain as we fire up the time machine and head back to February in Italy.

Oh, what could have been if MacKinnon had been able to score on what appeared to be an open net late in the third period of the men’s gold medal game with Hellebuyck down and seemingly out of position.

Instead, the star forward fired wide, keeping the score deadlocked at 1-1 as the clock ticked down on regulation.

Railways, costs and benefits — the long view

Barry E. Prentice 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

A railway bypass route for Winnipeg has been endorsed by Premier Wab Kinew for further feasibility study. Naturally, critics have emerged that question the economics of a railway bypass.

AC/DC leaves Winnipeg crowd thunderstruck

Rob Williams 5 minute read Yesterday at 12:11 AM CDT

AC/DC proved once again that rock ‘n’ roll ain’t noise pollution.

A rowdy stadium of about 35,000 people at Princess Auto Stadium couldn’t agree more as the Australian rock legends made their first trip to the city since 2015 on their PWR/UP tour, cranking out two hours and 20 minutes of raw and raunchy high-voltage material, a mix of blues, crunchy power chords, melodic riffs and double entendres that spanned five decades.

Their wide-ranging appeal was apparent in the demographic makeup of the crowd, which ranged from young children to seniors, many clad in $30 glowing devil horns from the well-stocked merch booth that also offered posters, banners, beer koozies, lanyards, tour books and T-shirts.

There is no one in music quite like guitar god Angus Young. He is 71, but onstage he is ageless, a hyperactive teenager dressed in his signature blue schoolboy uniform and yellow and blue cap, running around, duck-walking and leaping in the air while cranking out riff after riff and extended solos on his trusty black Gibson SG.

Break spell before it hexes your marriage

Maureen Scurfield 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:00 AM CDT

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I have an itch that needs to be scratched every couple of days. I sneak home with a new young woman from my workplace, who is a witch, and spend an hour or more with her, learning some things my wife doesn’t know anything about. It’s not really sexual with this new person yet, but I’m feeling intrigued by her witchy-ness — and more.

I’m fascinated and want to learn whatever she’s willing to teach me as we go along. This is especially cool now my “magic woman” has told me she’s interested by the darkness in me. Whatever that means. Nobody’s ever noticed that before.

I feel my wife really doesn’t need to know I’m into this stuff. It would only hurt her, and it may lead to nothing. But how do you keep a secret from your partner for any length of time when they know your every mood and can almost smell your secrets?

MIKAELA MACKENZIE / FREE PRESS Winnipeg Blue Bombers quarterback Zach Collaros did not participate in the club’s practice on Monday as the starting pivot deals with a head injury. But head coach Mike O’Shea hasn’t ruled the starting QB out of Friday’s game just yet.

Bombers backup Brown takes reps at practice as Collaros recovers from head injury

Taylor Allen 6 minute read Yesterday at 6:26 PM CDT

Let’s cut to the chase: Zach Collaros is dealing with a head injury and did not participate in Monday’s practice.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers returned to work Monday for the first time since beating the Saskatchewan Roughriders 19-6 in the Banjo Bowl — a game their starting quarterback left early after his head hit the turf while attempting to force a defender out of bounds following an interception.

Given Collaros’ well-documented injury history, and the fact that he’s sidelined to start the week despite the club coming off a bye, it’s unlikely he’ll be under centre Friday when the Bombers (7-6) host the Toronto Argonauts (8-6).

“Always, more so as a friend just concerned for his health,” said right guard Patrick Neufeld on his concern level for Collaros.
