MOON ALERT: Caution! Avoid shopping (except food and gas) or important decisions all day today until 10 p.m. After that, the moon moves from Pisces into Aries.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You feel a strong need to relate to others. This is because your emotions are heightened as the moon is in your sign. It’s tricky because you can be emotionally giving and emotionally demanding.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You might be tempted to withdraw from the demands of people and duties around you because you want to avoid something. Probably, you don’t feel like socializing. You might want to explore the mystical side of your world? (You need some privacy.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Your contact with friends and members of groups is important. This is why you might feel more protective and supportive to someone. You might even feel a bit jealous if this person pays more attention to someone else?

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You’re high-viz, which means people notice you more than usual. Keep this in mind in case you’re tempted to have a public argument with a loved one. (Hissing in loud whispers in an elevator?) Be aware that people seem to know details about your private life.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You want to shake things up, because basically, you want some adventure! You need a change of scenery. Therefore, change your daily routine. Go someplace you’ve never been before. This could be a minor thing, but at least it’s fresh and new! This is what you hunger for.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Because your emotional experiences are more intense than usual, this might be reflected in your emotional encounters with others? Perhaps it’s because you feel possessive about something, or it could be related to memories from your past? You might want something someone else has.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your attention will likely turn to your most personal relationships because you feel the need to express your feelings. Because of this, if you have conflict with a spouse, partner or close friend — it will be more emotional. Guard against knee-jerk reactions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might have to put your own emotional considerations second to those of someone else. Don’t worry; you’re not being a martyr. This is just what’s happening. Meanwhile, take a moment to focus on your health and what you might do to improve it. Ideas?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a lovely day for romance, socializing, enjoying a vacation and expanding your world through the theatre, movies and the entertainment world. You might also feel protective and nurturing to children or a romantic partner.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is the perfect day to retire by yourself somewhere and enjoy your own privacy. Make an effort to do this, even if for only a short time. Relax. Take some food that is a guilty pleasure. Read a book, watch TV, indulge yourself — because you need it. Give yourself a mental-health break.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You feel a strong need to talk to others because you have something you want to say. The key is you have to find someone who is willing to listen to you — genuinely and sincerely. (In other words, you don’t want to simply chat to someone about something inconsequential.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

It’s easy to identify with your possessions, which is why you might feel more possessive about something than usual? For example, perhaps you don’t want to lend something to someone? Check the moon alert before spending money. Definitely.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Ingrid Bergman (1915-1982) shares your birthday. You’re clever, independent, wise and often romantically involved with someone. You are always inquisitive. This is a slower-paced year. Take time to rejuvenate your energy and your outlook. Focus on business and personal relationships, and make sure you hang out with people who are kind, helpful and have your back.

Province urges federal government to continue vital health-care funding

Carol Sanders 4 minute read Saturday, Nov. 8, 2025

Manitoba wants the federal government to renew an annual $150-million health-care agreement that, for the last three years, has helped the province go “further, faster” to staff up the front lines.

“The loss of these agreements would mean that we’re losing predictable targeted federal contributions that have helped us stabilize staffing and strengthen health care — not just health care in our hospitals, but community-based care as well,” Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara said Friday.

The program, dubbed “Working Together to Improve Health Care for Canadians,” was announced in February 2023; the federal government has earmarked close to $150 million a year in 2023-24, 2024-25 and 2025-26. Tuesday’s federal budget made no mention of renewing those funding agreements.

“I think there was an opportunity missed today to signal that the bilateral funding agreements for your health care are going to continue,” Premier Wab Kinew noted in his response to the budget on Tuesday. One of the deals Manitoba signed is set to expire at the end of March.

As camp fees increase, Sunshine Fund delivers another summer of adventures

Ken Wiebe 4 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

Dana Moroz is on the other end of the line and the manager of the Sunshine Fund can hardly contain her enthusiasm.

With the summer winding down and school on the verge of being back in session, Moroz was asked about the 46th season of the program that sent children in need to 31 accredited camps across the province and northwestern Ontario.

Although the final numbers are still being calculated, it was a banner year for the program, which benefited from the Free Press Sunshine Fund campaign that ran throughout the past several months.

“We had over 700 kids that we supported to go to summer camp,” said Moroz, noting the cost of doing so eclipsed $300,000.

Beware invasive, ‘frightening’ waterhemp

Laura Rance-Unger 4 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

There’s a threat lurking on the edge of Manitoba farmers’ fields this fall that’s even scarier than the escalating trade war with their biggest customer.

Provincial extension advisers are warning farmers to watch for a weed known as “tall waterhemp,” which, true to its name, may already be towering above ready-to-harvest crops.

Those wispy tentacles waving in the breeze look pretty innocuous from a distance. But this highly invasive member of the pigweed family produces hundreds of thousands of seeds that are just itching for dispersal through farmers’ combines and across their fields.

Each of those tiny seeds — one small pill container filled halfway holds 44,000 — can produce plants with stems the width of saplings and heights of two to five metres. One or two plants can quickly turn into a patch. If waterhemp takes over a field, it can choke out the growing crop and cut yields by more than 90 per cent.

Occupied Ukraine holds Kremlin-staged vote on joining Russia

Hanna Arhirova, The Associated Press 7 minute read Friday, Sep. 23, 2022

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — A Kremlin-orchestrated referendum got underway Friday in occupied regions of Ukraine that sought to make them part of Russia, with some officials carrying ballots to apartment blocks accompanied by gun-toting police. Kyiv and the West condemned it as a rigged election whose result was preordained by Moscow.

Meanwhile, in a grim reminder of the brutality of the 7-month-old invasion, U.N. experts and Ukrainian officials pointed to new evidence of Russian war crimes. Kharkiv region officials said a mass burial site in the eastern city of Izium held hundreds of bodies, including at least 30 displaying signs of torture.

The referendums in the Luhansk, Kherson and partly Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk regions were widely seen as a prelude to Moscow annexing the regions. The voting, which was overseen by authorities installed by Russia, is scheduled to run through Tuesday and is almost certain to go the Kremlin's way.

Authorities in the Kherson region said residents of a small Moscow-controlled area of the neighboring Mykolaiv province also will be able to vote, and that small area was “incorporated” into Kherson until all of Mykolaiv is taken over by Russian forces.

The silent stalker overtaking our sidewalks

The silent stalker overtaking our sidewalks

Russell Wangersky 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

Under the McPhillips railway bridge lives an overload of a sensory experience — and not in a nice way.

Once in a while, the city sidewalk sweepers make their way through the narrow, dark passageway, clearing away the sometimes inch-deep pigeon droppings along the edges. But most of the time, it’s the worst part of my walk.

There’s the guano — slick as grease when the sidewalk’s filled wall to wall with standing puddles — plus dead pigeons, broken pigeon eggs, discarded needles. Regularly, small handfuls of discarded, opened, probably stolen mail, as well as torn-open delivery packaging. The smell is overpowering, and it all seems like ground zero in an avian-flu-breeding sci-fi movie.

It’s also a pinch-point on McPhillips: the roadway has narrowed to two lanes to fit under the old bridge, and the sidewalks are narrow as well, tucked between a concrete wall on one side and steel girders that can only be described as encrusted on the other.
