CAMPERVILLE, MAN. -- Seated in the living room of her tiny, impeccably ordered house, Grace Zoldy takes a little girl's hand and begins a language lesson.

"La viande," the woman says, her hazel eyes dancing under a fringe of silver bangs. "That means meat."

"Deux poisson," she says next, a nod to the goldfish circling a nearby tank. The little girl likes to come watch them. "Two fish."

The sounds are familiar to anyone who took elementary-school French. But Zoldy is not French, and her words aren't either: they are something rare, something studied in universities in countries that Grace, when she was learning these words as a toddler in Camperville, didn't know existed.

Woman with schizophrenia pleads guilty to stabbing caretaker in neck

Dean Pritchard 4 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

A Winnipeg woman previously found not criminally responsible for stabbing three people is now facing a possible prison sentence for stabbing her apartment caretaker in the neck while in the grip of a psychotic delusion.

Victoria Nuoi, 34, has pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated assault for the April 2025 attack.

At a hearing Tuesday, Crown attorney Marla Bettencourt recommended Nuoi, who lives with schizophrenia, be sentenced to four years in prison, while her lawyer Chris Gamby urged provincial court Judge Dale Harvey to sentence her to three years supervised probation.

Harvey reserved his decision, saying he needed time to consider the widely disparate recommendations.

Vote, people!

Re: Get out and exercise your franchise (Editorial, Oct. 24)

I’m now in the autumn of my life but have voted in every single election since I was first eligible, which at that time was the age of 21. This was impressed upon me at a very young age by my father, who said it was every citizen’s duty to vote.

The apathy with regard to voting these days is appalling. And I know that some of the people who do the most complaining about how things are being done are those who don’t bother to vote. Perhaps to overcome this, Canada should look at doing what Australia and several countries in Europe and Latin America have done, which is to make voting compulsory.
