Supplied Olivia is an active puppy who would do well with other dogs.

Breed: Shepherd mix

Size: Medium (weighs 24 kg)

Time in care: 31 days

Olivia was found by the City of Winnipeg’s Animal Services Agency as a stray without any identification. After waiting for possible owners to show up without any luck, she was placed in the adoption program.

Olivia has been waiting for her forever family for over a month. We’re hoping that she can find a home soon, so that she doesn’t have to spend any more of her puppy months in the shelter.

Olivia is a very bright, happy pup. She doesn’t seem to have had any training, so she will need to learn manners and basic commands. She has already learned how to “sit.” She is a very busy girl, and would benefit from having an active family that can match her energy. She has a lot of it!

Olivia seems to get along well with other dogs. She does best with other rough-and-tumble dogs or dogs with equally high energy. If Olivia is expected to live with another dog in her new home, a meet-and-greet can be arranged to ensure a good match.

Those interested in meeting Olivia can call 311 or email animalservicesagency@winnipeg.ca to set up an appointment at the Winnipeg Animal Services Agency at 1057 Logan Ave.

Adoption fees come with a one year licence, a veterinarian check-up, core vaccinations, tattoo, microchip implant, six weeks of free pet insurance, a small bag of dog food, deworming for young pups and literature on responsible pet ownership.

WestJet will launch direct flights to two more warm destinations this winter.

Each will be offered once a week, starting on Nov. 28 and Dec. 14, respectively.

The additions support the growing demand for options to warm weather destinations, John Weatherill, executive vice-president and chief commercial officer of WestJet, said in a news release Monday.

Two boys are presumed drowned in Nutimik Lake in the Whiteshell.

RCMP and community search-and-rescue teams are still trying to locate the children, aged 10 and 13, who got caught in fast-moving rapids in Nutimik Lake near Sturgeon Falls Trail in Whiteshell Provincial Park on Saturday.

Lac du Bonnet RCMP received the report of possible drowning at 12:40 p.m. July 18. Police immediately went to the scene, along with local fire personnel and emergency responders, but didn't find the boys despite extensive patrols on the water and on the shoreline, police stated in a news release Sunday.

Manitoba RCMP Underwater Recovery Team  and the Hutterian Emergency Aquatic Response Team were deployed to assist in the search. Drones were also used.

Mosque’s restorative justice program helps newcomers find their way

Josiah Neufeld 10 minute read Yesterday at 10:13 AM CDT

The Masjid Bilal is a chunky grey building just off Logan Avenue surrounded by warehouses and railyards. It looks more like a bunker than a mosque.

But on a summer Friday afternoon, its green-and-white carpeted interior is humming with activity. Two men in white robes and flat woolen caps are seated on the carpet poring over a copy of the Qur’an. A few young boys dodge through hallways, poking curious noses into open doors. At the back, next to a table piled with prayer mats, two girls in hijabs share schoolyard gossip. In the kitchen, women are cooking up pots of rice and chicken for people who will soon arrive for Friday prayers.

The Masjid Bilal is a community hub for members of Winnipeg’s African diaspora as well as Muslims from many other countries.

It’s also home to the Bilal Community and Family Centre, an innovative, community-centred nonprofit that is meeting vital needs for newcomers in this city.
