MOON ALERT: After 7 a.m. today there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Gemini.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You’re impulsive, and you are also highly creative. You might have an original idea that surprises everyone. Don’t hesitate to share what you think even if it sounds a bit touchy-feely or too “out there.” Meanwhile, keep hard at work busting your buns.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You might have some unusual ideas about making money or increasing your earnings. Admittedly, something unexpected might also impact something you own. Therefore, guard your possessions against loss, theft or damage. Strive to be clear in your thinking and communications.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is an unusually powerful day for you because the moon is in your sign enhanced by several planets. You’ll be an effective communicator who might inspire a friend or group. However, guard against impulsive, rash actions because your moods will change quickly. Keep your eyes open!

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You might feel restless. Make no assumptions when dealing with authority figures (parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs and the police) because there is a possibility of confusion or misunderstandings. You have strong ideas about shared property, inheritance and debt.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

A friend might say or do something that catches you off-guard. Or perhaps a member of a group will do so? Possibly, something unusual, even in the news, makes you feel sympathetic to someone and you want to help. Meanwhile, conversations with partners and close friends could be intense.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Keep your eye on authority figures — including parents — because they might do something you least expect. (“Busted!”) It can be minor, or it could be major. Don’t break the rules. Ask for permission. Some of you will look for ways to improve your health or job.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Travel plans might be interrupted. Or you might suddenly have to travel when you didn’t expect to do so. Romantic exchanges as well as interactions with kids might be intense. (You might even feel jealous.) Meanwhile, you’ll want to help a partner or someone close to you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Think twice before you make an important financial decision, especially if giving someone else money or sharing something. Don’t be rash. Give everything a sober second thought. (Even if you want to help someone.) Also, guard against an obsession!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A partner or close friend might throw you a curveball. Be ready for something unexpected. Someone might be jealous or may misunderstand something — even a gesture of generosity or caring on your part. Fortunately, you make a great impression on everyone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your work routine will be interrupted. Equipment breakdowns, staff shortages, late deliveries — something will occur. Guard against being obsessed about something — perhaps meeting a deadline or going by the rule book? Stay flexible. In the passage of time, will this really matter? Keep things in perspective.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Parents should be extra-vigilant about their kids because this is an accident-prone day for children. Furthermore, information about social outings, your kids or sporting events might be confusing or misleading. Don’t get your belly in a rash.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your home routine will be interrupted. Small appliances might break down or something could surprise you. Someone unexpected might appear at your door. Stay cool. Confusion about money and possessions is likely. Get all your facts before you react or decide to take action.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Charlie Sheen (1965) shares your birthday. You’re clever, thoughtful, independent and determined. You appear to be conciliatory and affable to be effective. It’s time to build foundations in your life both externally and internally. Simplicity is key. Take charge of your health. Physical exercise will be important. (Explore martial arts or yoga.) Stay grounded and levelheaded.

Steve Lyons: Hello there. How’s it going? Hope retirement is treating you well. It’s been a few weeks since we’ve chatted. I had a vacation and went to the west coast — man, it’s nice there — and well, you’re now on a permanent vacation haha

How’s the couch?

So, I was in the boss’s office the other day chatting about the Jets — we do that — and he quoted you! Something along the lines of this: as Wiecek would say over and over again — the Jets fortunes seemed to be tied to the success of Connor Hellebuyck.

It’s like renaming the Great Barrier Reef

Ralph Pirozzo 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

I write as a proud Canadian-Australian who is experiencing something I never imagined possible — watching Canada’s sovereignty, economic security and national identity being repeatedly challenged by the country it has long regarded as its closest neighbour and ally.

This is not an abstract diplomatic disagreement to me. Canada is my beloved country. To witness its name, dignity and independence treated as though they may be diminished, negotiated away or simply disregarded is profoundly painful.

Any one of the events that has occurred might be dismissed as another dispute between governments. Taken together, however, three developments provide unmistakable evidence that a red line has been crossed.

First came the tariffs affecting Canadian steel, aluminum, automobiles and softwood lumber. These measures were introduced despite the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement — CUSMA — intended to provide stability, predictability and largely tariff-free trade across North America.

Permanent closure of street near Parliament mulled

Laura Osman, The Canadian Press 6 minute read Wednesday, Feb. 23, 2022

OTTAWA - The three-week long protest that gripped the capital and prompted the invocation of the Emergencies Act has now sparked a call for permanent changes to security in the parliamentary precinct, including the closure of a major street to vehicle traffic.

After grappling with the city's emergency response to the crisis, Mayor Jim Watson said Ottawa needs to consider changes to better protect local neighbourhoods and Parliament Hill.

"Every time there's been a security breach on Parliament Hill, it's acted as a catalyst for change," Watson said at a council meeting Wednesday.

The National Capital Region needs to start looking at itself differently than any other part of the country, the city manager said.

Fuel prices likely to rise further, economists say

Fuel prices likely to rise further, economists say

Christopher Reynolds, The Canadian Press 5 minute read Wednesday, Jun. 22, 2022

MONTREAL - Soaring gas prices fuelled the largest rise in the annual inflation rate in four decades last month, Statistics Canada says — with further increases anticipated.

In May, customers paid 48 per cent more at the pump than a year earlier as a result of high crude oil prices, caused in turn by supply bottlenecks after Russia's invasion of Ukraine and a leap in demand prompted by eased COVID-19 restrictions.

The price of gasoline jumped 12 per cent between April and May, the largest one-month price increase since January 2003, the agency said Wednesday. That surge helped propel last month's 34.8 per cent rise in energy prices year over year.

Gas prices are expected to rise another five per cent in June, projected Bank of Montreal chief economist Douglas Porter.

Neighbours relieved after fire strikes Quickie Mart

Morgan Modjeski 4 minute read Yesterday at 8:38 PM CDT

As Janina McNaughton watched the Quickie Mart on River Avenue go up in flames on Tuesday, she felt relieved.

“The first thing I see is flames, like a fireball of flames inside,” McNaughton said about watching the blaze from her bedroom across the street.

On Wednesday, the bright green building, at 292 River Ave., was boarded up and charred on the outside.

Crews from the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service responded at 8:13 p.m. Tuesday to battle the blaze, said the city in a news release. It was under control within the hour.

Ebola shipment potential legal risk

Ebola shipment potential legal risk

Dylan Robertson 5 minute read Thursday, Aug. 1, 2019

OTTAWA — Canada could be exposed to legal liability if the pathogens it sent to China from a Winnipeg lab are misused, a top Canadian scientist said.

Gary Kobinger said while it’s highly unlikely the recent shipment would be abused, Ottawa requires adequate paperwork to protect the government from such a situation.

“Typically, when you ship reagents with a Material Transfer Agreement (MTA), an important clause is to release liability,” Kobinger said Thursday. “Those (agreements) are... for ensuring that the recipient will not use the materials to, even accidentally, cause harm.”

Kobinger co-led Canada’s efforts to develop Ebola vaccine ZMapp at the National Microbiology Lab in Winnipeg, alongside Xiangguo Qiu.
