Thick wildfire smoke drifting down from northern Manitoba has prompted Environment Canada to issue an air quality warning for much of the province.

The earlier special air quality statement was upgraded as out-of-control wildfires continue to burn in the north, pushing thick smoke into southern Manitoba and as far away as the American border states.

 Environment Canada says smoke is causing very poor air quality and reduced visibility. 

The smoke is expected to clear throughout the morning as some much-needed rain falls across the province. 

Christian singer-songwriter Terrian is sharing her testimony in a new film.

The former member of TobyMac's Diverse City sat down with the global storytelling ministry, I Am Second, to share her story. 

Music was something that Terrian knew would always be a part of her life. She grew up a pastor's kid surrounded by praise and worship music in church and her home. 

By the time she was five years old, she already knew her career would involve music. However, it wasn't until later in her life that she would develop a deeper relationship with God.  

As more Manitobans flee their homes due to out-of-control wildfires, the Winnipeg Humane Society is stepping up to provide temporary shelter for animals with no place to go.

A new temporary shelter will be set up in the St. Norbert Community Centre and will be able to house and provide vet care to about 60 animals. 

Dante Bowe has returned to Maverick City Music almost three years after he was released from the band due to 'inconsistent behaviour with our core values and beliefs.'

Maverick City Music took to social media on Sept. 26, 2022, to announce that they were pausing their work with Dante. 

About three weeks ago, it was revealed that Bowe was back on tour with the five-time Grammy-award-winning collective. 

In a video posted on Dante's social media, you can see him performing on stage alongside the popular worship band. 

Christian singer and rapper Forrest Frank was recently on a podcast, in which he shared a story about following God's prompting and the incredible thing that happened next. 

"I'm in Seattle and I feel like God is telling me to let my car run out of gas," says Frank in a recent podcast interview on The George Janko Show. "I don't know if you're familiar with the geography of Seattle, but there's this long bridge. I'm halfway on this bridg,e and the car runs out of gas."

It took Frank an hour and a half of walking to get off the bridge and find the nearest gas station.

What began in 1949 as a small educational institution tied closely to Steinbach Bible College has since expanded to nearly 500 students and 48 staff members, with grades now ranging from kindergarten to Grade 12. 

A clutch base hit by Tanner O’Tremba gave the Winnipeg Goldeyes (10-12) a late lead and an eventual 4-3 victory over the Lake Country DockHounds (11-9) at Wisconsin Brewing Company Park Sunday afternoon.
 
With two out in the top of the ninth inning, O’Tremba lined a single to centre field that brought Ray-Patrick Didder in from third base and broke a 3-3 tie.
 
Trevor Brigden (W, 1-2) pitched around a one-out ground rule double down the left field line by Ray Zuberer III to clinch the win for Winnipeg.

As emergency officials work to find hotel space for wildfire evacuees on the Prairies, a Manitoba Indigenous group says it has welcomed residents from the Pimicikamak Cree Nation at a hotel in Niagara Falls, Ont.

The organization, which represents Indigenous peoples in Manitoba, said in a social media post that the first of the evacuees from Pimicikamak were greeted Sunday at the airport in Hamilton with snacks and drinks before being loaded onto a bus for the last portion of their trip.

Canada's premiers are heading into to a meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney in Saskatoon Monday armed with their wish lists for major "nation-building" projects that could buttress the economy in the face of a U.S. trade war.

Carney asked the premiers to each pass on five suggestions for national infrastructure projects, and Monday's meeting will aim to identify the ones that will make the final cut to be fast tracked using legislation Ottawa may introduce as early as this week.
