Luke 7:12–15

Tact graces a lifelike fragrance graces a rose. One whiff of those red petals erases any thought of the thorns.

Tact is like that. It’s remarkable how peaceful and pleasant it can make us.

Its major goal is avoiding unnecessary offence ... and that alone ought to make us desire it. Remember the teacher you had who lacked tact? Learning was sacrificed daily on the altar of fear. You wondered each session if that was the day you’d be singled out and embarrassed through some verbal put-down in front of the class.

While the season has come to an end for the Winnipeg Jets after a devastating 2-1 overtime loss in Dallas, team owner says Winnipeg fans are the best in the league. 

"The past several weeks of playoff hockey created a wide range of emotions for all of us," Mark Chipman said in a post shared to Facebook.

Students, families, and supporters will gather at St. John's Ravenscourt School on Thursday afternoon to honour an alumna and the legacy she created. 

In 2006, Kendra McBain was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of bone cancer called alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. 

The Winnipeg Police Service is requesting the public’s assistance in locating a missing 17-year-old girl.

The WPS says that Mary Chartrand has not been seen in a month. According to a release, she was last seen on April 22 at 7:50 p.m. in the area of Centennial St. and Kingsway of Winnipeg.

The union representing about 55,000 Canada Post employees said the latest offers from the postal service "fall short" with hours to go until a looming strike deadline.

Canada Post meanwhile said Thursday it's already seeing mail volumes decline ahead of another possible labour disruption and is pushing for an urgent resolution.

Spokesperson Lisa Liu said Canada Post hasn't yet received a response from the union about its proposals issued a day earlier.

The postal service is ready to resume bargaining "as soon as possible" with a mediator at the table, she said.

Some Winnipeggers will have to hold onto their recycling longer than expected. 

Recycling collection is suspended on Thursday, May 22, due to a police investigation after a body was found at the Materials Recovery Facility. 

The recycling suspension does not impact garbage collection. 

For those who have Thursday as collection day, and if it has not been picked up, please put the recycling cart out on Saturday morning before 7 a.m.

The Winnipeg Police Service continue to investigate after reports of a body being found in a Symington Yards recycling depot early Thursday morning. 

WPS received information that a body had been found at a recycling depot in the 300 block of Mazenod Road. It is believed to be an adult male, pending identification. 

The investigation is still in the early stages. More updates will be released when they become available. 

An 18-year-old man from Stonewall is dead following a collision late Wednesday afternoon.
