A 32-year-old Winnipeg man has died after being hit by a train near Headingley on Sunday evening.

Headingley RCMP say officers responded to the incident around 8:15 p.m. on March 2, near the Hall Road crossing off Wilkes Avenue.

Emergency crews, including CN Police Service, EMS, and the local fire department, arrived at the scene, where the man was pronounced dead.

RCMP and CN Police Service continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident.

One day after he had what he describes as a "colourful call" with U.S.

U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick says he expects President Donald Trump will pause tariffs on Canada and Mexico until April 2.

Lutnick told CNBC he expects an agreement today on goods he says are compliant with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade.

His comments come a day after Trump granted a one-month exemption for any vehicles coming through CUSMA after the Big Three automakers had a conversation with the president.

Although his new book is an autobiography, Devon Clunis is quick to point out that the story in his new book isn’t merely his own. 

“It really is our story,” he says. 

The former chief of the Winnipeg Police Service recently shared ONE: A Story of Hope in Our Time, his first autobiography amongst his literary output over the course of his career. 

Award-winning and Platinum-selling singer and songwriter Brandon Heath is using his ninth studio record, The Ache, to reach his deaf fans.

Heath was inspired to create American Sign Language performance videos after an encounter with a deaf fan several years ago. That fan, Ian Myers, sent him sign language interpretations of his songs. 

With help from Araya Williams, a hearing interpreter and longtime friend of Heath, he was able to bring his seventh studio album, Faith, Hope, Love, Repeat, to a deaf audience.
