Manitobans between the ages of 12 and 17 taking part in indoor sports will now have to be vaccinated against COVID-19 or tested regularly.

The latest restrictions have kids and teens needing to have proof of either at least one vaccine dose or a negative rapid test from the past 72 hours to play indoor sports.

During a news conference earlier this month, Brent Roussin, the province's Chief Public Health Officer had this to say.

"The overall goal of that is to ensure that we have as many vaccinated in that age group as possible or tested," he said.

With cases rising rapidly among people under 20, the new rules are an effort to control transmission among children and youth..

The orders apply to all Manitobans aged 12 to 17 entering any indoor sporting or recreation facility as a spectator or to participate.

Some bad news for Prairie canola farmers and the industry as a whole.

Statistics Canada says production fell more than 35 percent this year to its lowest total since 2007.

The national canola crop is estimated at 12.6 million tonnes, with an average yield of 25 bushels an acre.

The heat and the dry conditions had the greatest effect in Saskatchewan, with an average canola yield of 22 bushels an acre.

The majority of all canola in Canada is grown across Alberta, Saskatchewan and right here in Manitoba.

Non-Emergency cardiac surgeries have been once again temporarily cancelled in the province.

A Shared Health spokesperson says the decision was made due to the need for more ICU beds in the province for the continued influx of Covid-19 patients at Manitoba hospitals.

Dozens of patients have been moved from Winnipeg Hospitals to other hospitals in the province due to the continued fourth wave of the pandemic.

A total of 41 patients have already been moved from Winnipeg hospitals while 21 have been transferred from the Interlake-Eastern Health Region to free up ICU beds.

Manitoba RCMP has released its impaired driving statistics from January 1 to Nov 30 this year.

Across the province, there were 73 deaths in 63 collisions with 21 involving suspected alcohol use.

Today is National Impaired Driving Enforcement Day which coincides with the launch of the holiday season impaired driving enforcement blitz.

With impaired driving being the biggest criminal cause of death in Manitoba, it is something that the RCMP takes very seriously, and they hope that you can help change the statistics.

Make sure to report any suspected impaired drivers to your local RCMP detachment, as well as make the smart choice and plan ahead to not drive impaired this holiday season.

Gypsumville RCMP believe three incidents in the community as of late may be drug and gang related.

First on November 29 at about 3:45 a.m., officers responded to a residence on School Road in the community of Pinaymootang First Nation after getting a report of shots fired. Then about 14 hours later, officers responded to the same residence after getting another report of shots fired. 

Officers would then respond to another report of shots fired, this time on December 2 in the area of Main Market Road in the community. No injures were sustained in the three incidents.

Police are asking anyone with information to please call Gypsumville RCMP at 204-659-5224 or call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477, or secure tip online at www.manitobacrimestoppers.com.

The Dauphin Ride Program, also known as Reducing Impaired Driving Everywhere, will not be operating this Christmas season because of health and safety concerns associated with Covid-19.

Normally this locally based program operates weekends in December and on New Year’s Eve.

The purpose of the program is to provide safe transportation for individuals, after an evening of celebration involving alcohol and or cannabis.

Organizers of Ride say that going forward with the program at this time would be too high of a risk for both volunteers and passengers.

They would also like to encourage all individuals this Christmas not to drink and drive, and to arrange for safe, sober transportation.

Jenna Bardarson and her three-year-old daughter were mistakenly given an adult dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine when they went in for their annual Flu Shot at the Keystone Centre in Brandon.

Bardarson had already had her first two doses of the COVID Vaccine but wasn't eligible for her third shot yet. She was stunned when one of the workers told her what had happened but was mostly just concerned for her daughter.

Bardarson does not want this to deter others from getting the vaccine but encourages people to ask questions. Both mother and daughter had side effects from the shot and a week after still haven't heard anything about how the mix-up happened.

Canada's Vaccine Advisory Panel is strongly advising a booster dose to anyone over the age of 50, as long as it has been six months since their second shot.

Currently, Manitobans over the age of 18 are eligible for their booster shot six months after their second dose was administered.

According to Dr. Theresa Tam, the Chief Public Health Officer of Canada, this recommendation comes due to the uncertainty surrounding the new Omicron Variant which seems to be more resistant to the Vaccine than the previous variants.
