A Winnipeg intersection will look different than normal on Monday afternoon. 

The intersection at King Street and Bannatyne Avenue will be the first location to experience a scramble intersection. 

The point of the scramble signal is to stop motor vehicles in all directions, once a cycle while allowing pedestrians to cross every direction. 

The Scramble signal is a pilot project being tested to see if it is suitable for streets in Winnipeg. 

The City hopes that by having a dedicated crossing phase for pedestrians will improve safety and efficiency. 

Five people are recovering after multiple people were stabbed early Monday morning. 

The incident happened around 4 a.m. in the 500 block of Mountain Avenue. 

Winnipeg police say when they arrived at the scene, they found five adults suffering from stab wounds. Three were transported to hospital in critical condition, the other two in stable condition. They have all since been upgraded to stable condition. 

It's believed the incident is isolated and involved a group of people who were fighting. They say there is no risk to public safety. 

For artist Tim Schouten, the journey to document the places in Manitoba where the treaties between Indigenous and settler peoples were signed began over two decades ago when he first arrived in Winnipeg. 

“I was at a sort of transitional place in my work,” he explains. “I was shifting from the figure to the landscape as a thematic... and I started exploring the landscape around here.” 

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. 

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.

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.
