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

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This is a pleasant day; nevertheless, you will have to put your own emotional considerations second to those of others. This doesn’t mean you’re being a martyr — it’s simply meeting the situation as it is. That’s life. You might receive an exciting health tip.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Enjoy warm relations with others, especially children. Romance will be exciting and have greater emotional depth than usual. Social outings will appeal. In particular, the arts, the theatre, museums and sports will be enjoyable activities for you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is the perfect day to relax. Find a way to retire to your own private space so you can take it easy and enjoy the reassurance of familiar surroundings. A conversation with a female family member might take place. Enjoy the beauty of your daily world.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You’re chatty and eager to learn the latest gossip and catch up on news. Short trips, conversations with siblings, relatives and neighbours, and a chance to see new faces and places will please you. Enjoy shopping for something pretty for yourself and for loved ones.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You identify with something you own more than usual. You want to take care of it or admire it. (You certainly don’t want to lend it.) This is actually a good day for you to buy wardrobe items for yourself. You’ll also enjoy active and competitive interactions with friends and groups.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Things will tend to go your way. Why not ask the universe for a favour? After all, you look fabulous because the sun is at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. Say yes if you’re asked to take on extra responsibilities, because you’ll shine. A secret love affair might begin.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Conflicting influences exist for you. In one way, you want to hide and enjoy your own privacy (with good food and drink). However, another influence makes you want to get out there and fly your colours. In fact, you want to travel. It’s your call.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your emotional contact with friends is important to you. You might feel more protective or supportive than usual to someone. Possibly, this same attitude applies to a group. This is also a good day to examine your overall goals in life. How well are you doing at the art of living?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You are noticed. In fact, some people will know personal details about your private life for some reason. Don’t worry about this. But do remember you need more sleep right now. Be patient with partners and close friends.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Try to do something different because you’re restless for adventure. Obviously, travel would be an excellent choice. But if you can’t get away, then explore your own neighbourhood or city. Meet new people. Learn new information through books, film and talking to others.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a pleasant time for you, which is why you want to socialize and explore fun outings. Relations with partners and friends are also reassuring and supportive. Discussions about shared property, taxes or debt might come up. You’ll handle this.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Ideally, you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others to make everything copacetic. (It’s not a big deal.) Home and family are your focus right now. Relations with co-workers are especially rewarding — perhaps even romantic.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actress Nicole Kidman (1967) shares your birthday. You’re curious, idealistic and can think on your feet. You’re also outgoing, exuberant and intuitive. This is a year of wrapping things up and moving on, because you are finishing a nine-year cycle. Take inventory of your life. Do some internal and external housecleaning. Commune with nature.

North Kildonan home on spacious property has everything you need to relax and entertain

Todd Lewys 5 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

Every home has a story, almost without exception.

That’s certainly the case with a sprawling bungalow situated amid a huge, beautifully treed lot in North Kildonan, says Glen MacAngus of Royal LePage Top Producers.

“When this home was built in 1957, it was a pretty good size,” he says of the home, which sports an impressively wide footprint. “Today, it checks in at 3,390 sq. ft. due to a pair of remodels. The first was in the early 2000s, while the second was in 2018.”

Suffice it to say, the well-maintained home is anything but a throwback to its late-’50s origins.

17 children, adult rushed to hospital after elevated platform collapses on school field trip

Chris Kitching and Maggie Macintosh 7 minute read Wednesday, May. 31, 2023

Almost 30 people, mostly children, were assessed for injuries after an elevated platform collapsed during a school field trip at Fort Gibraltar in St. Boniface Wednesday morning.

Seventeen kids and one adult were taken to the Health Sciences Centre campus, which declared a “code orange” — a disaster occurring outside the hospital — after a group from St. John’s-Ravenscourt School fell from a height of between four and six metres at about 10 a.m., according to emergency officials.

“It could have been so, so much worse. We were prepared for the worst,” Dr. Karen Gripp, medical director of Children’s Hospital’s emergency department, told a news conference outside the facility.

Three children were in unstable condition, while the rest of the patients were stable when they were taken from the scene, said Jay Shaw, an assistant chief with the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service.

Jazz fest's pop-up venue an experiment in sound design and architecture

Erin Lebar 6 minute read Tuesday, Jun. 18, 2019

The Winnipeg International Jazz Festival prides itself on being a downtown event with Old Market Square serving as its hub for six days of free concerts and headlining acts filling venues such as the Burton Cummings Theatre and the Centennial Concert Hall.

But this year, the festival is expanding its boundaries by collaborating with RAW:Gallery to create RAW:JazzFest, a pop-up venue just outside of the downtown borders in St. Boniface at Parc Elzéar Goulet on Taché Avenue overlooking the Red River.  

"It felt like a unique opportunity to create a concert experience for Winnipeggers that they haven’t had before, and to also kind of be part of making a cool building. There’s unique value in that," says jazz fest artistic director Mike Falk.

"We love having music in small spaces; I think that when people are crushed together a bit more their kinetic energy bounces around and makes for good shows, so I think with this project it’s definitely designed to both animate the space and animate the people, and have some fun, as well."

Hospital window smasher gets 90 days in jail

Tessa Adamski 4 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

BRANDON — A 35-year-old man from The Pas was sentenced to 90 days in jail after he admitted to smashing a garage window in the ambulance bay of the Brandon hospital while intoxicated.

James Constant pleaded guilty in Brandon provincial court on Thursday to mischief under $5,000 and breaching a probation order that prohibited him from possessing weapons. Two additional charges, involving failing to comply with a probation order and possessing a dangerous weapon, were stayed.

On July 15, Constant was taken to the Brandon Regional Health Centre by ambulance after he overdosed and became “aggressive” and “unco-operative” with paramedics, says an agreed statement of facts read in court by Crown attorney Rich Lonstrup.

“He took a piece of wood and smashed the garage-door window within the ambulance bay,” Lonstrup said.

The heat is on Valour FC goalkeeper Sirois to perform

Mike Sawatzky 6 minute read Monday, Mar. 28, 2022

A year ago, Jonathan Sirois was a promising young goaltender with a limited resume.

He spent the next six months putting his unique stamp on the 2021 Canadian Premier League season, pitching a shutout in his first start for Valour FC — a 2-0 win over Forge FC — and adding eight more clean sheets on his way to the league’s goalkeeper of the year honours.

He led all CPL goalkeepers in shutouts (nine), saves (94) and played 2,160 minutes — the most of any under-21 player in the league — as Valour FC narrowly missed a top-four finish and a berth in the post-season.

It was a stunning rise for 20-year-old native Montrealer, who was developed at the CF Montreal Academy and loaned to Valour as a 19-year-old.

Prairie opportunists are knocking and prime minister should answer the door

Dan Lett 6 minute read Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2019

In preparation for Halloween, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe have spent an inordinate amount of time rattling their chains and howling like indignant spirits about the raw deal they are getting from the rest of the country.

In the wake of a federal election in which the governing Liberals failed to elect a MP in either province, Kenney and Moe are summoning apocalyptic visions of secession. We've heard a lot of that before but Western separatists, inspired by the Alberta and Saskatchewan first ministers, are warning everyone that this time it's serious.

Now, before anyone gets too spooked, it's important to remember that a good politician is — first and foremost — an opportunist. These are the folks with the pure political instinct to recognize a moment in which they can gain the upper hand and then seize on it like a ravenous dog on a bone. Imagine that, and you'll have a pretty clear picture of what Kenney and Moe are up to.

In short, the two premiers want two big-ticket items from Ottawa.
