The Irish Influence on Canadian Music: A St. Patrick's Day Celebration

St. Patrick’s Day isn’t just about green beer and shamrocks—it’s also a time to recognize the deep cultural connections between Ireland and Canada, especially when it comes to music.

A 31-year-old Winnipeg man is facing drug charges after thousands of dollars worth of cocaine was found in a Varsity View apartment complex. 

The Winnipeg Police Service received information in March that a man was trafficking illicit drugs from his residence. 

Last week, on March 12, officers executed a search warrant on a suite of an apartment complex in the 100 block of Hendon Avenue. 

One person was arrested without incident and found to be carrying 46 grams of cocaine, worth an estimated $4,600 during his arrest. 

Ian Smith used to spend most of his days behind a desk in the RCMP's Windsor, Ont., detachment, working on investigations and performing administrative duties. As a member of the force's border integrity unit, the constable says he didn't even have to wear his uniform. 

But that recently changed. 

Smith now dons a uniform and body armour as he drives a marked RCMP vehicle to help patrol roughly 800 kilometres of Ontario's border with the United States, in addition to his usual investigative work. 

Mark Carney departed for his first foreign trip on Sunday, set to visit France and the U.K., with an additional stop in Iqaluit, Nvt., during a whirlwind three-day jaunt.

Carney is expected to talk about security and economic and trade ties while in Europe, where he will meet with French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

Carney will also meet with King Charles while in the U.K.

The Winnipeg Jets extended their winning streak to three games with a 3-2 overtime victory against the Seattle Kraken on Sunday night, thanks to Dylan Samberg’s game-winner just 1:47 into the extra period.

Cole Perfetti had a goal and an assist, while Kyle Connor also found the back of the net for Winnipeg.

Jets goaltender Eric Comrie was forced to leave the game in the first period after Seattle’s Matty Beniers crashed into the net. Connor Hellebuyck replaced Comrie while he underwent concussion protocol, but Comrie returned before the end of the opening frame.

A Winnipeg family is asking for prayer and support after their North Kildonan home went up in flames over the weekend. 

"I am absolutely in shock and saddened by the fire that consumed my son's house," said Larry Hobson, father of the family whose home went up in flames. "My son, his partner and his five kids made it out alive and lost everything."

The fire started around 7:45 p.m. on Saturday in a single-family, bi-level home on Hathaway Road.
