MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The moon is in Capricorn.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You have lots of common sense and can think very clearly. However, a boss or someone in authority might say something that makes you doubt yourself or question your decisions. Don’t fall for this. Enjoy entertaining or redecorating at home.

Morena Baccarin is 47 today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You are energized, particularly about travel or issues related to politics and religion. When it comes to finances, you will be conservative, practical and have long-range goals. Be aware that information related to travel might be dicey. Double-check whatever makes you question something.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is an excellent day for getting things done because you have an orderly state of mind and a sense of discipline. You’re sensible. Nevertheless, you might feel confused about shared property, taxes, debt or something to do with shared responsibilities. Clarify what you don’t know before you act.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Research will go well because you have the patience and stamina to seek solutions to your problems or answers to your questions. Be skeptical about what a friend or partner might have to say, especially if it relates to a boss or a parent. Get your facts to be sure.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might lead a group, because people see you as sensible and ready to assume the responsibilities. You might also seek the advice of someone older. Nevertheless, do not be confused by media or political discussions. Stay on track.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You have lots of energy to play and assert yourself in social situations. This high energy will help you be competitive in sports and physical activities. Meanwhile, a boss or someone in authority might have practical advice. If confused about romance, wait a day.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Double-check anything a partner, spouse or close friend says, because issues could be blurred or cloudy. Be confident about dealing with shared property, taxes and inheritances. Trust legal advice or someone from afar.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a tricky day, because in one way you feel confident, assertive and even persuasive, yet something might make you doubt yourself. Trust your common sense. Issues related to shared property and the resources of others are solid.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You’re happy to work hard if you can boost your earnings. You might take on responsibilities related to kids or something to do with the hospitality industry or sports. However, if something makes you doubtful, check it out. You want your decisions to be solid.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

When it comes to your job or dealing with your kids or something related to sports, the entertainment world or the hospitality industry, you feel confident. Nevertheless, someone at home or a family member might create self-doubt within you. Trust your instincts.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is an excellent day to deal with kids, take the lead sports or offer practical suggestions related to the hospitality industry or entertainment world. You know what you’re doing. Don’t let yourself be derailed by self-doubts. Stick with what you know.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Because a parent or a family member has assured you of something in a practical way, you feel confident about sharing this information with friends or members of a group. Don’t let someone who is worried about finances or the cost of something discourage you. Go forward with your ideas and trust your instincts, because you’re very intuitive.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Morena Baccarin (1979) shares your birthday. You are intellectual, courageous and undaunted by challenges. You’re also quick-witted and analytical. This year is the end of a nine-year cycle. Take inventory of your life. It’s time to let go of people, places and things that have held you back. Do some internal and external housecleaning.

It’s about more than tractors at threshermen’s reunion

Matt Goerzen 4 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

BRANDON — The Manitoba Threshermen’s Reunion and Stampede will sport a carnival-style midway for the first time in decades when it opens this weekend.

The Manitoba Agricultural Museum in Austin offered to be a stand-in host for a Select Shows gig that was flooded out in Swan River.

Earlier this month, the Swan River Valley Agricultural Society was forced to cancel the 2026 North West Agricultural Society Exhibition and Stampede after flooding forced evacuations and caused extensive damage.

The Swan River event was supposed to take place from July 23-26 — the same dates as the threshermen’s reunion.

Man accused of impaired driving nabbed for speeding near park

2 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

BRANDON — A 22-year-old man is facing several charges, including impaired driving, after he was arrested last week for going 100 kilometres per hour near a park.

On July 16 around 4:30 p.m., Ste. Rose du Lac RCMP officers saw a truck that appeared to be travelling 100 km/h in a 40 km/h zone near a park in Ebb and Flow First Nation.

The truck was seen near the intersection of Lake Road Northeast and Northwest Road, RCMP said Tuesday.

Police realized the truck matched a description of a vehicle that had fled from officers multiple times earlier in the week, the release said.

Small business group says immigration cut makes it tough to hire workers

Carol Sanders 5 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

Canada’s immigration clampdown has put employers in remote and rural places in a bind and put fear into employees from abroad who want to stay.

Yi (Rick) Zheng and his family from China, who’ve been working in Thompson for two years and hope to gain permanent residency, said they fear their work permits will expire and they’ll have to leave the country.

Zheng, 41, says he works as a restaurant cook and his wife works at a hotel in the northern city, where their two children, ages 10 and 12, are thriving in school.

“I work very hard every day. Our kitchen doesn’t have enough staff.”

Reading the city in its buildings

Reading the city in its buildings

Stephen Borys 6 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

Cities reveal what they value. Their buildings are the evidence.

Long after today’s debates have ended, buildings remain. They record what a community believed was worth building, what it considered beautiful, what it chose to preserve — and, perhaps most revealingly, what it allowed to disappear. Architecture is history written in brick, stone, concrete, glass, steel and wood.

Architecture is not only about the past. It is also about the future. Every building we preserve, every building we construct and every building we demolish says something about who we are — and what kind of city we hope to become. Our built environment forms part of our collective cultural memory. It tells the story of where we have been while shaping where we are going.

A city is a manuscript that every generation revises. Our responsibility is to leave the next chapter better than the one we inherited.

Health care and economic growth

PLEASE do not ask how my algorithm delivered this news.

Still, apparently, embalmers are finding that “tough, white, rubbery, fibrous masses resembling strips of calamari … are turning up in body after body across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.”

According to this news source, these fibrous entities emerged after the COVID pandemic and subsequent vaccine rollout.

Citing research published in the International Journal of Innovative Research in Medical Science by a retired U.S. Army officer, the news presenter weaves a horror story of an unsuspecting public being duped into accepting harmful vaccines. The YouTube video I viewed is just one example of the anti-vaccination lobby’s toolkit.

Strong, capable women rob Trudeau of moral authority

Strong, capable women rob Trudeau of moral authority

Dan Lett 6 minute read Wednesday, Mar. 6, 2019

The hole that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fell into last week just got a little deeper, and his path back out significantly less certain.

Following an extraordinary week in which former Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould publicly accused Trudeau and his senior staff of improper political pressure to help SNC-Lavalin, Treasury Board President Jane Philpott resigned from cabinet, saying she had lost confidence in the prime minister and cabinet. 

It was always going to be a challenge for Trudeau to survive the damage done by Wilson-Raybould following her resignation from cabinet, and testimony to a Commons committee last week. But Philpott's resignation has made that climb seem nearly unassailable.

At press time, Trudeau is reportedly hunkered down in his Ottawa office, contemplating some sort of statement of contrition. That's solid evidence that this latest development has pushed Trudeau's leadership to the brink of the abyss.
