ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This is a tricky day. Don’t be too ambitious. It’s totally OK to kick back and relax. But be aware that communications with parents and authority figures might be confused, vague or subject to misunderstandings. Nevertheless, romance is sweet and cosy!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Avoid controversial subjects and important discussions about politics, religious issues and travel because this will get you nowhere. Too much confusion! However, you might be interested in a new relationship with someone “different.” In fact, new love can blossom.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a poor day for financial discussions or working out how to share something with a friend or group because wishful thinking will outweigh logic and rational analysis. Too tricky! However, a work-related romance might be dreamy and promising.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Be careful in discussions with parents, bosses, spouses, partners and close friends because distorted views and misunderstandings are classic. Beware of overdoing it with alcohol or drugs. It’s a tricky day, however, romance as well as relations with kids are reassuring.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Work-related relationships will be supportive, perhaps even romantic. However, discussions about foreign nations or issues related to travel, politics and religion will very likely be confusing and possibly distorted. You won’t know what to believe. Tread carefully. Some people are just off-base.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a lovely day for romance, playful outings, socializing, sporting events and fun activities with kids. However, be careful if dealing with joint expenses, shared property, or the wealth and resources of others. Something is off or incorrect. Assume nothing.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You’re in a dreamy state of mind which can promote fantasy over reality. This is why it’s a poor day for important decisions about family issues or partnerships. Nevertheless, something to do with your finances or purchases will please you. Keep your receipts — and the box.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is basically a relaxed, dreamy day. Don’t give yourself an ambitious agenda. However, be careful of overdoing it with booze or drugs or something that can confuse you because this is possible. (Even food poisoning.) Fortunately, relations with siblings, relatives and neighbours are cosy.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

In many ways, this is a laid-back, feel-good day! However, there might be confusion or incorrect assumptions in romantic relationships as well as in dealing with social situations or kids’ activities. Double-check all your details. Make sure you’re on the same page.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The moon is in your sign, which gives you a slight advantage over others. In fact, relations with friends and groups will be warm and supportive. However, be careful with family discussions because this is where confusion might trip you up. Do your best to be clear with everyone.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Take it easy. Relations with bosses, parents and authority figures are warm and supportive. People are happy to see you. Nevertheless, if you feel a sense of confusion or that something fishy is going on — it probably is. That’s because this is a dreamy, fuzzy day for many people.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Be careful about financial agreements between friends and groups. Double-check details for errors or incorrect assumptions, because people can be sloppy in their thinking about money. However, enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds. Grab every opportunity to travel or learn something new, because this will delight you.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Jeremy Irons (1948) shares your birthday. You are sensual, and you admire beauty. You’re also lively, enthusiastic and interested in new experiences. This is a slower-paced year. Take time to rejuvenate your energy. Focus on business and personal relationships and try to hang out with people who are kind, helpful and have your back.

Premier’s travel edict a dangerous political move

Dan Lett 5 minute read Wednesday, Feb. 3, 2021

Mr. Blue had already been out of Manitoba for a couple of weeks when he got the news that he was in violation of a new and harshly worded edict from Premier Brian Pallister.

Issued hastily on Monday night, the new commandment declared that any government appointee who travels "for leisure purposes" outside Manitoba could be terminated from their positions. People like Mr. Blue.

A life-long Manitoba Progressive Conservative, Mr. Blue, who asked that his real name not be used, has organized campaigns, recruited candidates and raised money. Currently, he sits on the board of an arm's-length government entity, appointed by Pallister.

And right now, he also happens to be at his vacation property in a popular, warm-weather destination.

Mayor honours pair who rescued little girl, father from Red River in August

Morgan Modjeski 4 minute read Friday, Sep. 18, 2026

A “proud and thankful” Mayor Scott Gillingham honoured two Winnipeggers Friday who rescued a young girl who fell into the Red River last month.

Gillingham said he was humbled to meet Jayclyn Morrissette and Brady Saunders before he presented them with the Mayor’s Award of Valour for saving the child and her father, who jumped into the water in an attempt to help his daughter and nearly drowned.

“These are the kind of people who we have in our city,” he said. “When someone is in need, they’ll step up, risk their own lives, to help someone they’ve never met in their life.”

Morrissette and Saunders were at St. John’s Park in the evening on Aug. 24, when they saw the man and child in the river.

Province applauds apprenticeship numbers

Gabrielle Piché 4 minute read Friday, Sep. 18, 2026

Apprentice use at build sites of the Victoria General Hospital emergency room and four new schools has doubled expectations, the Manitoba government reported on Friday.

The construction projects are subject to Manitoba Jobs Agreements, a controversial policy the New Democrats unveiled last year.

Through the contracts, at least 10 per cent of construction hours must be worked by apprentices. So far, apprentices have covered 21 per cent of hours, Public Service Delivery Minister Mintu Sandhu said.

Work on the schools and Winnipeg emergency room — the first Manitoba Jobs Agreement projects — began this year. The overall number of hours worked wasn’t available by end of day Friday.

Building Northern Manitoba right

I had the pleasure of attending the recent celebrations welcoming grain shipments back to the Port of Churchill, alongside business leaders, port workers, community members and government partners. We find ourselves at an important and pivotal moment and there is a lot of optimism about Northern Manitoba.

Whether it’s the Port of Churchill Plus, all-weather roads and trade corridors, new mines and exploration, a transmission line to Nunavut or billions going into modernizing our hydro-electric systems, one thing is clear: Northern Manitoba needs to be prepared for a potential boom in development.

Now more than ever, Canada and Manitoba have to get this right.

Prime Minister Carney and Canada’s premiers have met with some of the world’s largest investors to discuss nation-building projects that will shape our country’s future.

Let’s start off this week’s edition with the Week 21 matchup between the Montreal Roses and AFC Toronto that had already taken place before last week’s column was written.

It was, arguably, the heavyweight matchup of that week, with the Roses attempting to place a three-game buffer between itself and the surging Mighty Maroons while Toronto was trying to gain some breathing room between itself and the Ottawa Rapid.

Instead? A 2-2 draw thwarted any progress from either team.

Making way for the Rapid to leapfrog back into second place over Toronto… right? Well, buckle up for the riveting answer to that question and the jostling for fourth place in this column’s latest edition.

Family account spiced with magic realism, geopolitical intrigue and a ghost story

Family account spiced with magic realism, geopolitical intrigue and a ghost story

Reviewed by Zilla Jones 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

Tom Lin’s second novel Babylon, South Dakota moves beyond a historical account of an immigrant family’s struggle, delightfully blending and bending genres.

Lin is a Chinese-born novelist whose family emigrated to the U.S. when he was four years old. His debut novel, The Thousand Crimes of Ming Tsu, won the 2022 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction, making him the youngest ever recipient of that award. He earned a PhD in English from the University of California Davis and is currently an assistant professor of English and creative writing at the University of Iowa.

Babylon, South Dakota takes place in an unspecified time period that can be understood to be during the Mao era — likely the 1950s or ’60s. A young Chinese couple, the Hsuis, immigrate to the rural community that gives the book its title. They take the names Saul and Mei and settle on a 160-acre homestead left to them by a distant relative.

Saul’s dream is to breed and sell chrysanthemums from seeds he brought from China, while Mei wants to raise livestock. They speak no English, know nothing of life in the United States, are unprepared for the harshness of winter and the isolation of the farm and bring nothing with them except some gold, which Mei hides around the house for emergencies. Their only link to the outside world is a discarded and marginally functioning TV set, which Saul rescues and rigs up.
