All sideshow, little substance

Editorial 4 minute read Thursday, Oct. 8, 2026

Well, there’s one thing that can be said about Winnipeg’s 2026 mayoral race that sets it apart from most previous campaigns for city council’s top position:

It isn’t boring.

In most civic elections, the power of incumbency and/or familiarity gives one mayoral candidate such a profound advantage that the outcome is all but a foregone conclusion and the lead-up to voting day becomes both uninteresting and largely irrelevant.

This year’s race, to the contrary, has been noteworthy for the unusual level of friction, controversy and mud-slinging that has been injected into the early part of the campaign.

Woman arrested for sporting goods theft spree

2 minute read 3:09 PM CDT

A 45-year-old woman has been arrested after police say suspects pulled off a series of thefts at a city sporting goods store and posted several stolen items for sale online.

According to Winnipeg Police Service news release, on Wednesday just before 2 p.m. officers from the Property Crime Unit arrested a 45-year-old woman in relation to an organized retail theft investigation.

Police say earlier this month, investigators received information about a series of thefts from a sporting goods store on the 500 block of Sterling Lyon Parkway.

An investigation determined that between Sept. 28 and Oct. 15, suspects stole hunting and fishing equipment, electronics, clothing, and other merchandise valued at over $11,500.

Jets pack up early amid whispers of fractured locker room

Mike McIntyre 7 minute read Monday, Apr. 22, 2019

There was no smoking gun. That's just not the Winnipeg Jets way — to air any potential dirty laundry in public. They'll keep things bottled up as tightly as possible, trying to create the illusion of a united front.

But as players and coaches gathered for an autopsy on their 2018-19 NHL season Monday, there were enough clues dropped about how the body ended up in the morgue. And they all point to something suspected for quite some time about this club, one with such lofty expectations that came up painfully short: there were a multitude of issues, both on the ice and off.

Exhibit A: head coach Paul Maurice's take on one of the priorities heading into next season.

"We’ve got a few ruffled feathers in there that we’re going to have to flatten out before we get going," Maurice offered up, without providing any further details.

WAG-Qaumajuq has appointed its first Indigenous director and CEO.

John Mahli Lawa’ Hampton has been selected to take the helm of Canada’s oldest civic art gallery, WAG-Qaumajuq announced Thursday.

The appointment follows a national and international search led by Arts Consulting Group. Bill Elliott, WAG-Qaumajuq’s deputy director and chief financial officer, has been serving in the role on an interim basis since longtime director and CEO Stephen Borys departed the gallery in 2025 after 17 years.

Hampton, who uses they/them pronouns, will begin in the role on Dec. 10.

The best of the best in Blue and Gold

No one would use the word “outstanding” to describe this year’s Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Their inconsistent ways have them on the ropes heading into the regular-season finale in Vancouver. The Bombers (8-9) must beat the B.C. Lions (10-7) on Friday to advance to the playoffs.

Nevertheless, it’s an annual tradition across the three-down loop for each team to have nominees for the CFL Most Outstanding Player Awards.

And while the Bombers have not lived up to expectations through 17 games, there are a few players who have shined through the ups and downs of the 2026 campaign.

Another chunk of cash earmarked to increase participation in sport and develop homegrown athletic talent is being wired across the country.

On Thursday, the federal government announced an additional $60 million in financial backing for national sport organizations (NSOs).

Some extra wiggle room on mid fiscal-year budgets was not expected by Canada’s 63 NSOs, which were slated to receive a combined $112 million in core Sport Support Program (SSP) funding, and will now see north of $150 million in total.

“Sport has the power to shape lives and bring people together in a way few things can. Today’s announcement reflects a new era for sport in Canada, one where more kids have the opportunity to get out and play, and Team Canada athletes have the support they need to compete and win,” Secretary of State for Sport Adam van Koeverden said in a statement.
