Psalm 133:1

Do you realize how closely unity and humility are tied together? One breeds the other; neither can exist without the other. They're like Siamese twins, perpetually connected.

Personally, I have seen numerous occasions when pride won out (even though it was never called that) and harmony faded away...and I mean fast...

Contrary to the stuff you might read today, the words, fight and quarrel, are not apt descriptions of the way to get ahead. They won't ultimately glorify God.

The Canadian Meat Council is warning that the Liberal government’s legislation to ease the movement of goods and services within Canada could actually undermine red meat exports.

Lauren Martin, senior director of public affairs for the organization, says the bill is raising questions about whether it could lead the federal government to recognize provincial rules for inspecting meat processing facilities as equal to federal standards.

Worship will fill the air on Saturday at St. Vital Park. 

Between powerful worship, soul-stirring spoken word and fellowship, Obed Borteye, District Evangelism Leader at Church of Pentecost Winnipeg Amazing Grace is excited for the time of fellowship. "I'm excited because souls are coming together, not just to worship God, but to open our hearts to God until we see from God, let's go out there with the Gospel. Let's take Winnipeg for Christ and I know that a lot will be a blessing to all of us."

The Newsboys spoke out at a recent concert in Phoenix, Arizona, reacting to recent allegations against their former bandmate, Michael Tait.

Before hitting the stage at the Elevate Music Festival, Adam Agee, the band's current lead singer, made a statement. 

École Charleswood School is home to a new large mural.

With guidance from mural artist Fred Thomas, Grade 7 and 8 students helped design and paint the new artwork, The Passage.

The art piece was inspired by things the students learned after trips to Tom Chester Park, Assiniboine Forest, Oak Hammock Marsh and Brokenhead Wetland.

The seven sacred teachings can be found within the painting as well as the four traditional medicines, with every inch of the mural created with intention and detail.

A top federal official said fixing the payroll problems caused by Phoenix cost taxpayers more than $5 billion — and they'll keep paying extra to run two public service payroll platforms at once as Ottawa weans itself off the problem-plagued system.

Alex Benay, associate deputy minister at Public Services and Procurement Canada, said the alternative to running the Phoenix system in tandem with its replacement, Dayforce, would have been worse.

"The unfortunate situation is there's no easy path," he said. "This is the one that's going to impact employees the least."

The iconic Portage & Main intersection in downtown Winnipeg is set to open up to pedestrians on Friday. 

The busy roadway has been closed to pedestrians since 1979.

In March 2024, Mayor Scott Gillingham recommended the intersection be reopened, as the costs to repair the Portage and Main underground began to soar. 

Construction to take down the barricades at Portage and Main began in October 2024, with several lane closures throughout the following months. 

A survivor of a rockfall last week in Banff National Park is remembering his 33-year-old roommate, who didn't make it out alive from under the rubble, as a kind and generous friend.

Khaled Elgamal says Hamza Benhilal of Surrey, B.C., was one of two people who died after a slab of mountain gave way Thursday, raining rock down on hikers at Bow Glacier Falls, about 200 kilometres northwest of Calgary.

Manitoba has lifted its provincewide state of emergency. 

Premier Wab Kinew announced that as of Monday at noon, the state of emergency under the Emergency Measures Act has been rescinded as many Manitobans have started to make their way home. Kinew says though we are still in a very serious situation, battling the wildfires is something that can be done through "normal government powers." He adds it is important to have a light touch when it comes to something as serious as declaring a state of emergency.
