TOP PICKS

Netflix is building on its reputation for Christmas cheer with a sleigh full of new holiday-themed TV episodes. Among the offerings are special editions of the baking show “Nailed It!,” anime series “Neo Yokio” and preschool kids adventure “Super Monsters,” all due on Dec. 7. The platform will deliver a winter solstice episode of “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” and a special for “Prince of Peoria” on Dec. 14.

Christmas is happening on Crave in a big way this month, too, as the service formerly known as CraveTV merges its selection with the cable channel formerly known as The Movie Network. That means plenty more holiday movies are among its offerings, including favourites “Home Alone” and “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York,” “Love Actually” and the less-conventional Christmas gem “Die Hard,” all on Dec. 1. Another oddity, the killer shark comedy “Santa Jaws,” arrives on Dec. 7

Rachel Brosnahan returns to her Golden Globe and Emmy-winning role as a 1950s housewife-turned-comic in “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.” The second season opens with Midge (Brosnahan) forging ahead with her unlikely career — a secret she’s keeping from her family. “Maisel” has been a darling of critics and the TV industry, which handed its creators eight Emmy awards, including ones for supporting actress Alex Borstein, writing, directing and casting. The latest season debuts on Amazon Prime Video on Dec. 5.

The landscape that taught us to see

The landscape that taught us to see

Stephen Borys 6 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

The white pine stood at the edge of the lake, leaning out over the water, its branches bent by years of wind and weather. Beyond it stretched an expanse of blue water beneath a clear sky, a distant tree line and other pines rising along the rocky shoreline. From the deck above, the landscape seemed both expansive and remarkably still.

I had been looking at it for only a few moments when Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven entered the picture. Not literally, of course. But once the association appeared, I could not unsee it. The pine became The Jack Pine and The West Wind. The surrounding rocks, water and sky called up A.Y. Jackson, Arthur Lismer, Franklin Carmichael and Lawren Harris. A landscape I had been looking at all weekend suddenly became part of a visual history Canadians have carried with them for more than a century.

Perhaps that is the Group of Seven’s greatest achievement. They did not simply paint the Canadian landscape. They changed the way we see it.

I was at the lake for a quiet weekend, reflecting on the cultural, community and development projects that occupy much of my work through Civic Muse. Increasingly, I see these pursuits as part of the same conversation — place and identity, how we understand it, care for it and decide what is worth carrying forward.

Indigenous-, newcomer-focused job fair puts opportunity in spotlight

Gabrielle Piché 3 minute read Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026

Canadian Armed Forces pamphlets grazed the side of Serena Valiquette’s ribbon skirt, as the Grade 9 student clutched the handouts tight.

“When I get to age, I’ll probably apply,” said Serena, 14, joining pockets of students hopping from booth to booth — City of Winnipeg here, Manitoba Public Insurance there — at a job fair in Winnipeg on Tuesday.

The job seekers, present and future, were largely Indigenous and newcomers. It was the demographic organizer Clayton Sandy aimed to attract.

“We have the ability to open doors for young people,” Sandy said. “This is one of the ways we use.”

Cabbie, passenger dead after Salter Street collision

Free Press staff 2 minute read Updated: 5:46 PM CDT

Two men died in a Wednesday morning collision between a taxi and a sedan on Salter Street near Aberdeen Avenue, police said Thursday.

Winnipeg Police Service officers were sent to the intersection at about 6:30 a.m., where they found the cab driver, a man in his 40s, and his passenger, a man in his 50s, in critical condition. Paramedics took the men to hospital, where they later died.

The sedan driver, a woman in her late teens, and an adult passenger, had minor injuries.

Traffic investigators believe the sedan was travelling west on Aberdeen when it collided with the cab that was southbound on Salter.

Record number of women elected in Manitoba municipal elections

Chris Kitching 5 minute read 3:33 PM CDT

A record number of women were elected to municipal office in Manitoba in elections held across the province Wednesday.

The Association of Manitoba Municipalities said 213 of 339 women candidates were voted in, accounting for almost 25 per cent of elected municipal officials — up from 20 per cent in 2022.

Portage la Prairie Mayor Sharilyn Knox, who applauded the increase, said there has been progress to reduce barriers that impede women’s participation in local government, “but I don’t think we’re where we need to be yet.”

“I think representation matters. When women see other women sitting around council tables, chairing meetings and taking on leadership roles, it helps them see themselves doing the same thing,” she said.

Waiting for Cormier verdict the ‘calm before the storm’

Katie May 6 minute read Thursday, Feb. 22, 2018

As the jury room door closed behind the seven women and four men who are now deliberating on the evidence against Tina Fontaine’s accused killer, Thelma Favel rose from the chair she’s occupied for most of Raymond Cormier’s second-degree murder trial.

Almost every day over the past three weeks, Favel, the woman who raised 15-year-old Tina, has sat right up front, directly across from the jury box, listening, sobbing and soaking in disturbing details of the teen’s last days that have come to light over the course of Cormier’s second-degree murder trial.

On Wednesday afternoon, after Court of Queen’s Bench Chief Justice Glenn Joyal instructed the jury and sent them off to be sequestered until they decide whether 56-year-old Raymond Cormier is guilty of killing Tina, Favel got up and hugged Crown prosecutor Breta Passler. It was one of many moments, this one shielded from jurors, that have long since proven the emotional impact of the case and the lasting power of Tina’s legacy.

Tina’s death sparked a public outcry that renewed calls for a national inquiry into disproportionately high rates of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls across Canada, and the criminal trial for the man accused of killing her hasn’t happened in a vacuum.
