Ste Anne Aces claim back-to-back SEMHL championships
5 minute read Yesterday at 2:14 PM CDTThe rest of the South East Manitoba Hockey League may be regretting letting the Ste Anne Aces join their ranks.
In the two years the Aces have been a part of the league, they’ve won the league championship, capping off back-to-back titles with a dominant 7-0 victory over the Warren Mercs in game four of the finals March 23.
“We knew what we needed to do,” Ste Anne captain Brenden Walker said after the game.
“We knew what was at stake, and we just couldn’t give them life. You give a team like this some life and they can take it and run with it.”

4 minute read Saturday, Mar. 23, 2024The NFL’s Washington Redskins are now the Washington Commanders. The CFL’s Edmonton Eskimos are now the Edmonton Elks. Baseball’s Cleveland Indians are now the Guardians. And just a couple of hours away, the North Dakota Fighting Sioux are now the Fighting Hawks.
Slowly but surely, professional and amateur sports teams are increasingly aware of and sensitive to the negative impact of racist team names and mascots. Those on the left rightly see this as progress. Those on the perpetually aggrieved right somehow see this act of respect and basic human decency as an attack on the American way of life.
Enter the former president of the United States, who last weekend told a crowd of his assembled cult members at a rally that a certain politician isn’t “fit” to run for the U.S. Senate because in 2022 he changed the name of the sports team his family owns.
“Anybody that changes the name of the Cleveland Indians to the Cleveland Guardians should not a be a senator,” said the only former president in American history to be arrested and charged with multiple felony crimes.
