Environment Canada has issued a wind warning for parts of southern Manitoba, with strong gusts reaching up to 90 km/h this morning.

Areas under the warning include Morden, Winkler, Altona, Morris, Steinbach, St. Adolphe, Emerson, Vita, and Richer. The winds are expected to ease this afternoon and diminish further this evening.

Environment Canada warns that the strong winds may cause damage to buildings, including roof shingles and windows, and could knock down tree branches or power lines, leading to possible utility outages.

Acts 4:10

"Then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed."

Acts 4:12

"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved."

Environment Canada has issued a freezing rain warning for Winnipeg and several surrounding communities, with icy conditions expected this evening.

A band of freezing rain is moving through southeastern Manitoba and will continue into the evening. Precipitation is expected to transition to snow near midnight before dissipating by morning.

The warning affects Winnipeg, St. François Xavier, Headingley, and several rural municipalities, including Cartier, Grey, Dufferin, and Macdonald, as well as the Morden, Winkler, Altona, and Morris areas.

Prime Minister Mark Carney's first move after taking office on Friday was to eliminate the consumer carbon price, undoing Justin Trudeau's signature climate policy.

Carney addressed members of the media after the Friday afternoon cabinet meeting, saying the government is "focused on action."

"We will be eliminating the Canada fuel charge, the consumer fuel charge, immediately, immediately," he said.

The order-in-council Carney signed in front of cabinet ministers and the press actually stipulates that the "the fuel charge be removed as of April 1, 2025."

Mounties say that a fire that destroyed a church building in southern Manitoba is suspicious and are asking for the public’s help in their investigation.

Today is March 14—or as math lovers know it, Pi Day! The date (3.14) matches the famous mathematical constant π, the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. While some celebrate with pie (the delicious kind), we thought we’d mark the occasion with a different kind of exploration.

Mark Carney has been officially sworn in as Canada's 24th prime minister in a ceremony at Rideau Hall, about an hour after Justin Trudeau formally resigned.

Carney told reporters on his way into the ceremony that his government is focused and ready to get to work.

Parts of central and northern Manitoba are in for a wintry weekend as a Colorado Low impacts the province. 

A snowfall warning has been issued for the area, with 15 to 25 centimetres of snow expected in the area by Sunday. 

Snow has already started in The Pas and Flin Flon regions and will begin to spread northeast this afternoon into Churchill by Saturday morning.

Environment Canada says areas such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to the accumulating snow.
