MOON ALERT: After 9 a.m. today there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Capricorn.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You are direct, proactive and quick to act. You shouldn’t second-guess anything, especially instructions or orders from authority figures — bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and even the police. You might misread their intentions? Postpone important decisions.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Steer clear of controversial issues related to politics, religion and racial issues, because an element of confusion and misunderstanding is rampant. It’s easy to kid yourself. It’s also easy for other people to kid you! Many will misinterpret others. Stay chill.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Postpone important financial decisions for another day. When it comes to anything related to shared property, banking details, inheritances, taxes and debt — your thinking is too fuzzy. You might not have the facts. Or your facts might be incorrect? Just tread water.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

This is a tricky day to talk to partners, spouses and close friends. For starters, you might be disappointed. You might also be confused. Be aware there is an element at play that can lead to distortions of people’s views as well as subconscious feelings of distrust. (Yikes.) Do nothing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Avoid controversial discussions about politics, religion and racial issues, especially if they’re related to your job or health. Whatever happens, know that everything is murky and misunderstandings are rife. This is a poor day to make decisions or to embark on any new course of action.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

It’s easy to kid yourself or suffer from confusion related to romance. You might fall into a dreamy state of mind that focuses on hopes unsubstantiated in reality. Your views might be distorted. Don’t act on your feelings.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Be patient and careful when talking to parents and family members, because you might not have all the facts or you might not really appreciate what’s happening. Subconscious influences could distort your views. Or habits picked up in childhood might confuse you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Bide your time and don’t jump to conclusions when talking to siblings, relatives and neighbours, because things might not be as they appear. Something going on in your daily environment might be misunderstood. Sit back and try to take things in. Be cool.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Because fuzzy thinking is very easy, this is a poor day for expensive purchases or making important financial decisions. Basically, it’s easy to be out of touch with reality, or to think something is better than it is. Save your money.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The moon is in your sign at odds with fuzzy Neptune, which can promote a dreamy state of mind where illusions become more important than reality. (Not good!) In particular, areas where you might feel confused could relate to close relationships or home and family. Be smart and postpone important decisions. Just ride this one out.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Be careful, because in one way this day is a bit tricky. It’s easy for subconscious influences to arise that will distort your views about something. This means you might not be able to trust your decision-making process. Tread carefully!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might feel disappointed by a friend or perhaps a group. The question you have to ask yourself is how realistic were your expectations? Were they pie-in-the-sky hopes you had? We are all frail mortals grappling on this “darkling plain.”

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Jason Statham (1967) shares your birthday. You are positive, energetic and passionately committed. You work hard to achieve your goals. This is a year of teaching and learning. Take time to renew your spiritual or religious beliefs. Explore philosophies that give you better self-awareness and get you closer to the true meaning of your life.

Unions’ battle over turf hurts health care

Dan Lett 5 minute read Wednesday, Jan. 30, 2019

When the Progressive Conservative government announced a plan to massively consolidate unionized bargaining groups in the health care system, it claimed the goal was to improve efficiency and patient care.

The fact that it has pitted some of the province's largest public-sector unions against each other in gladiator-style combat is just a side benefit.

The Canadian Union of Public Employees has accused the Manitoba Government and General Employees' Union of lying and fearmongering in a bid to win the support of health care workers in upcoming representation votes.

CUPE's letter focused on the issue of whether the province, through the regional health authorities, will force home care workers and hospital aides, slated to become part of one bargaining unit, to change where they work on a whim to meet staffing shortages.

Wild weather uproots trees across city, leaves thousands in province without power

Chris Kitching 6 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 5:06 PM CDT

This summer’s latest barrage of severe thunderstorms caused widespread property damage and power outages for more than 30,000 Manitoba Hydro customers, mostly in Winnipeg, as winds of up to 133 km/h wreaked havoc.

Charleswood resident Ian Glover’s house had minor damage compared with a neighbour’s home, where a large, uprooted poplar tree crashed through the roof while the storm pummelled Winnipeg late Wednesday night and early Thursday.

“I opened the window after I woke up (around 6 a.m.) and the tree — oh my God,” Glover said. “I got my wife up and she couldn’t believe it. I was totally blown away. (Our neighbour) said the branch went right through the house into their living room.”

Glover was thankful his neighbours were not injured. Some of the tree’s outer branches clipped the corner of his home.

Tory meddling could cost MPI millions, boost Autopac rates

Larry Kusch 9 minute read Monday, Jun. 24, 2019

The Pallister government has directed Manitoba Public Insurance to give complete control of its future online product sales to insurance brokers, a move that could cost the corporation an extra $23 million over five years and boost Autopac rates, according to documents obtained by the Free Press.

The documents, which include emails, letters, briefing notes and presentations, show repeated interventions by the Progressive Conservative government on behalf of brokers and shed light on why the Tory-appointed MPI board of directors sought a legal opinion last year to clarify its rights and responsibilities.

The documents also reveal that the PC government directed MPI management last fall to extend the corporation's contract with brokers by two years to Feb. 28, 2021 at a remuneration rate MPI viewed as excessive.

MPI had first proposed a less generous package than the brokers had been receiving, and then offered zero per cent increases in the first two years followed by 0.75 per cent in Year 3, mimicking government policy on civil servant and Crown corporation employee pay. The brokers wound up receiving annual increases to their base $84.5 million compensation that are indexed to inflation (the Consumer Price Index, which rose 1.9 per cent in March compared to a year earlier ).

One of the toughest tasks for the Steiner Brothers, a former kid tap dancing act from Winnipeg, was performing with Jerry Lewis at hospitals for sick kids.

“Oh my, you’d be trying not to cry,” recalled Rob Steiner, 72.

And Lewis, who would go on to help raise over US$2 billion for muscular dystrophy over his career with his annual telethons, would admonish the boys.

“He’d say, ‘What are you crying for? You’re making them happy. Why are you crying?’”

Resilience, perseverance in pursuit of normal life

Joel Schlesinger 5 minute read Saturday, May. 22, 2021

Roger McNeill says not much rattled his wife Pat — but miller moths terrified her.

“With a moth in the house, she would freak out,” he says of his wife, who died Oct. 22, 2020, at age 82.

That a tiny bug riled her always struck her husband as ironic, given all she had gone through.

Pat McNeill, after all, had survived polio — a disease that had a lasting impact on her life. Consequently, as a young adult, she often wondered if she would lead a life many took for granted: getting married and raising a family.

Letter of the law: WPS, IIU clash in court

Ryan Thorpe 5 minute read Tuesday, Feb. 11, 2020

A precedent-setting legal dispute between the Winnipeg Police Service and the Independent Investigation Unit of Manitoba has taken an important step forward.

Competing interpretations of the rules governing police clashed Tuesday in the Court of Queen’s Bench, as lawyers representing the two agencies presented their arguments for the first time in open court.

At the centre of the case is the question of whether WPS cadets — civilian employees of the police service — can be compelled to hand over their notes to IIU investigators.

“At its core, this dispute is between two competing interpretations of a section of the Police Services Act… We suggest there is a duty owed by the Winnipeg Police Service to the IIU that is not being satisfied,” IIU lawyer Samuel Thomson said.
