Wow! It certainly appears that a lot of the ".ca" repos (e.g.
http://www.muug.mb.ca) are returning 403 errors, yet you say you can
update. My guess is there's something very wrong with your fedup
configuration such as having a bad list of repos. My fedup logs, for
example, don't show downloading any of that repodata with the long
hex strings in front, but then again, my fedups worked.

Try reinstalling fedup: "yum reinstall fedup" and try the fedup
operation again.
