C O M / C O R O N A V I R U S Charmain Brown's two chil- dren both have a genetic disorder that causes vision loss, but only one had the surgery that makes it easier to see. Jenna and Adam were diag- nosed when they were children with Retinitis pigmentosa (RP). "It's very unusual to have sib- lings (with this disorder)," Char- main said. Jenna, who has a YouTube channel with more than 3,000 fol- lowers, explained during the day when there's lots of light, she can see "really well. I still have to be mindful of things around me. I'm careful when I cross a busy inter- section. Sometimes I do have to pay attention to things more. At night I can't see at all. In dim light- ing it is difficult to see." Jenna was part of a clinical tri- al and underwent years of tests at the Hospital for Sick Children when she was a child, and around 10 years ago, traveled to the United States to receive an innovative sight restoring treatment - now called Luxturna - on her left eye. She saw immediate results.

OPINION TO LEARN HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR OWN CONTENT VISIT DURHAMREGION.COM LETTERS & COMMENTARY Every season has its wonders, and its opportu- nities. When summer greens and the gaudy reds and golds of fall have passed the world takes on muted, tawny tones on its way to winter silver. So beautiful in its own special way! With trees and shrubs stripped bare, late fall is a good time for discoveries. Bird nests are suddenly re- vealed, where a yellow war- bler, robin, cardinal or goldfinch raised babies right beside the path. Or maybe a red-eyed vireo. Without the distractions of a busy, buzzy summer, there's time to notice a bunch of red berries, a cat- tail going to seed, a clump of woodfern, the last green on a forest floor. And milk- weed pods, dried out, split open by the frost and re- leasing their precious con- tents one by one into the wind. We were up in Halibur- ton County cutting fire- wood, dead elms in the farmyard that needed care- ful coaxing to fall in the right direction. Part of my job was cranking the "come- along" device tightening the pull rope, standing way up the slope in waist-high grasses, surrounded by milkweed stalks. Naturally, I had to stop and "play" with a few from time to time, puffing on a pod to watch the sails release, fingering some silky strands and mar- veling at how compact and well designed those seed packages are. How does a globular flower turn into a purse filled with fine silver and bits of winter-proof DNA? One of nature's mys- teries... I was glad I'd already col- lected a pocketful of pods back home and scattered seeds in a few areas that needed them. The more milkweed in the world, the better, as far as monarch butterflies are concerned, not to mention the dozens of bees, flies, beetles, wasps and other pollinators that feast on the nectar. And hu- mans like me who revel in the heady perfume they give off, some of the sweetest in Ontario. Walking the Waterfront Trail the following week I mentioned milkweed to my friend Lois Gillette, who grows it, along with other native wildflowers, in her big and bountiful garden. Artist, photographer and advocate for nature -- she's president of the Durham Region Field Naturalists -- Lois told me she'd just tak- en pictures of some milk- weed pods and would be happy to share them with me. They were beautiful enough to blow up and hang on the wall, captur- ing that magical moment when a milkweed seed peels off, unfurls its puff of silk and sails out across the land, fertility in the wind.

MANY INSECTS LOVE MILKWEED NECTAR AND MARGARET CARNEY COULDN'T RESIST 'PLAYING' WITH PODS IN HALIBURTON WHITBY WOMAN'S 'ATTITUDE, SPIRIT ARE INDEED INSPIRING' To the editor: Re: 'Woman speaks of re- covery from violent summer attack.' I write this as one of the many in our community who has cared, prayed and worried for this woman. We thank her for sharing her story and ongoing jour- ney of recovery with us. 'I'm a little slower than usu- al but...I feel healthy, I'm strong, I'm doing really well.' These are incredible and uplifting words. The article acknowledg- es her team but I agree that most of all it was/is her will to live/survive and deter- mination that are the forc- es that have gotten her to where she is today. It is so brave of her to list all the horrific injuries that were inflicted on her in this random attack -- shocking! How she is try- ing and appears to be suc- ceeding in rationalizing such an evil and violent ir- rational act is beyond pow- erful. This amazing woman is looking to a future where she continues to heal her mind, body and spirit/ soul. It's not just about the attack (it happened!), now it is what is next and how best to use and share the life lessons and insights that will be the true legacy of all this. Her attitude and spirit are indeed inspiring -- please keep fighting on. One strong day with faith at a time... PATRICIA CLIFT WHITBY COVID RATE 'BREAK' COST READER MORE To the editor: So the hydro compa- nies were giving the cus- tomers a real break dur- ing COVID. Well, it was pretty clever of Elexicon to charge 12.8 cents per kWh for anytime use when I was only paying 10.1 cents per kWh in off peak time, the time period I used all the time. In other words, my bill would have been a lot less if they had left it the way it was. So did the hydro compa- nies give us a break? Not re- ally. They just did it in a way that looked like they were. Government should be paying more attention to what utilities are charging unsuspecting customers.

Luxturna was only approved in Canada this past October. "So we're really excited about that because now Adam (her son, 17) has an opportunity to have it done and Jenna has an opportuni- ty to have it on the eye that was not treated," Charmain said. Sick Kids will be a treatment site, explained Doug Earle, Fight- ing Blindness Canada (FBC) pres- ident and CEO. "The surgeons are trained, the protocols have been approved by the hospital," he said. But, FBC and patients across the country are worried they won't be able to access new cut- ting-edge treatments such as Lux- turna due to new guidelines by the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board (PMPRB), a federal agency. They're set to take effect on Jan. 1. "They set the maximum price for what can be charged in Cana- da for this treatment," Earle said. If Canada won't pay as much for a drug as other countries, the pharmaceutical company may choose to bring it elsewhere. Patient groups from different communities including cystic fi- brosis, ALS and cancer fear that doctors will only have cheaper, older and less-effective drugs available to them to treat patients with, as new drugs will not be made available in Canada. FBC is one of 13 patient groups that have created a campaign, Protect Our Access. It's asking all stakeholders to collaborate for a workable solution where the pa- tient is at the centre, specifically, that the pharmaceutical industry finds a way to lower prices and the government prioritizes human lives over saving costs. "We need to make sure that ac- cess to these treatments and pric- es are balanced," Earle said. The federal government is lay- ing the foundation for National Pharmacare and hopes to save an estimated $13 billion dollars in the next decade. "I think there is a legitimate concern about making sure phar- maceutical companies do bring their medicines here, especially rare disease drugs," Pickering- Uxbridge MP Jennifer O'Connell said. But Canadians pay among the highest patented drug prices in the world, only after the United States and Switzerland, and she said the government is working to strike a balance. "We want to make sure we cre- ate a process where companies and pharmaceuticals come here but they can't come here and be so unaffordable that Canadians can't really access them anyways," O'Connell said. Historically, each province ne- gotiates prices with pharmaceuti- cal companies separately, but that will change with the new guide- lines. "Now, with having one national negotiator we can negotiate better and (get) fair prices and that's go- ing to allow better access," O'Con- nell said. STORY BEHIND THE STO- RY: Durhamregion.com was contacted by Fighting Blindness Canada about the lost opportuni- ty it felt the Brown family and other Canadians will face with new federal guidelines.

The City of Pickering requested that the Minister consider making a Zoning Order. Ontario Regulation 607/20 applies to three properties known municipally as 1802 Bayly Street, 1902 Bayly Street and 2028 Kellino Street in the City of Pickering, comprising approximately 92 hectares (227 acres). For illustrative purposes, the lands are shown in the map below. A Zoning Order regulates the use of land and the erection, location and use of any building or structure on the land. In addition to the major tourist and entertainment uses already permitted on these lands in City of Pickering Zoning By-law 7404-15, Ontario Regulation 607/20 permits a broad mix of commercial, employment and residential uses on the lands described above. Pursuant to subsection 47(4)Planning Act,and except for the purposes of section 24, the Minister deemed Ontario Regulation 607/20 to be and to always have been a by-law passed by the council of the City of Pickering. During the COVID-19 social distancing period when offices are closed, a copy of Ontario Regulation 607/20 may be viewed on the province’s e-Laws website (https://www.ontario. ca/laws/regulation/200607).

HomeFinder.ca You can do it all online, including buying a home! Many of us are feeling anx- ious and stressed lately as the pandemic continues to take a toll. To combat this, take ref- uge in the safety and comfort of home. With colder weather approaching, now is the per- fect time to make sure it’s a cozy, inviting space to enjoy. Decorate your interiors Never underestimate the impact of a few strategically placed textiles and decora- tive elements. For example, drape a plaid or Sherpa throw on the back of your couch or the edge of your bed, and sprinkle some fuzzy pillows on armchairs. An area rug can instantly make any room feel warmer and adds style and personality – you can even try one in your kitchen or bath- room. Experiment with fun textures, like a rich velvet or woolly cable knit. Reinvent your basement This underused space can become anything you want, but consider transforming it into a “you” space – some- where you can cocoon, un- wind and enjoy your favourite activities. Whether a mini li- brary and reading nook or crafting and sewing room is what you dream of, the first step in your basement make- over is a performance sub- floor like Dricore. The easy- to-install panels help protect against moisture and provide warmth and comfort, so you can feel cozy even in your bare feet. Once you have this solid foundation, infuse the room with items that inspire joy and relaxation, like your favourite scented candles, meaningful mementoes, fresh flowers or greenery, and soothing warm neutral col- ours. Update your artwork Bare walls feel cold and isolating, so make sure you hang plenty of interesting pieces. Large-scale, bold art works well in a contemporary home, while a more rustic or vintage aesthetic would ben- efit from a quirky gallery wall. Another great idea is to frame photos of your favourite memories, especially of activ- ities that are on hold right now, like big family gather- ings for special occasions or faraway vacations. Consider using natural materials like wood to bring extra warmth to your artwork and photogra- phy.

Statistics Canada re- ported a record $3.9 billion in e-commerce sales in May, a 2.3 per cent hike over April and a 99.3 per cent increase over Febru- ary. The pre-holiday num- bers are on an upward tra- jectory said the agency, noting Canadians now do 10 per cent of their spend- ing online. The pandemic, causing many brick-and-mortar stores to close, has created massive demand and op- portunity for delivery ser- vices, an industry valued annually at $12 billion na- tionally and $4.5 billion in Ontario. This is a windfall not without challenges for de- livery businesses, said Lin- kEdge Consultancy man- aging partner Brian Meagher. "Holiday delivery issues have been around for a long time," said Meagher who consulted Metroland Media in the planning of its new parcel delivery service launched earlier this month. "There has been a history of early cut-off times and that disappoints many consumers. This year, it could be a significantly big- ger issue for everyone." The fact that almost 50 per cent of consumers will shop online this year to avoid large crowds, and re- tailers want more delivery options, was the genesis to create and launch Metro- land Parcel Services, said Mike Banville, who leads the new service. Metroland, a division of Torstar Corporation, pub- lishes more than 70 com- munity and daily newspa- pers delivered to 70 per cent of Southern Ontario households by a network of 15,000 delivery contractors. Metroland's facility hubs, distribution networks and expertise ideally positions the organization to suc- cessfully extend its servic- es into parcel delivery, said Banville. "Our research and cli- ents tell us e-commerce channel growth has ex- ploded and is largely ex- pected to sustain post-CO- VID. Parcel carriers are struggling to meet service level commitments. Some carriers have inconvenient hard stop deadlines for hol- iday deliveries," he said. "Our new solution is de- signed to deliver a high val- ue premium final mile par- cel delivery experience in Ontario right up to Christ- mas Eve and beyond." Metroland's strategy and parcel delivery com- mitment struck an impor- tant chord with Toys R Us Canada president and CEO Vic Bertrand. "Toys R Us is focused on serving Canadians with what they want, when they want, and how they want it," said Bertrand. "The how is where Metroland comes in." Delivery makes up the majority of Toys R Us e- commerce transactions, followed by pickup and curbside, explained Ber- trand, adding that the ca- pacity constraints on deliv- ery last holiday, and through the pandemic, will persist through this holi- day season. "That's why we're thrilled to be on board with Metroland. Their service is both timely and targeted for our exponential growth in the Golden Horseshoe. Our e-commerce sales have risen triple-digit overall since the pandemic. "Metroland has a unique, high volume distri- bution footprint in Ontario that is well-positioned to respond to our last mile de- livery needs."

The new venture provides parcel delivery for retailers and distributors. Nick Kozak/Torstar BUSINESS METROLAND MEDIA LAUNCHES NEW DELIVERY SERVICE TO FILL GAP dur h a m r e g i o n . c o m New s A d v e r t i s e r | Th u r s d a y , N o v e m b e r 2 6 , 2 0 2 0 | 18 It was a busy Tuesday morning for Pick- ering Fire Services last week. The department dealt with two fires on Nov. 17, including one at 685 Uxbridge Pick- ering Townline Rd. in north Pickering. The fire service was called to the scene at 8:08 a.m. for a fire in a barn and some other outer buildings, said Chief John Hagg. "There were animals in the barn and the owner managed to get them out before we arrived," Hagg said. The Uxbridge and Stoufville fire servic- es assisted with water tankers. The barn was destroyed, while other structures were damaged. There were no injuries. At 9:34 a.m., the second blaze broke out in the garage of a home at 1887 Bicroft Ct., in the Liverpool and Glenanna roads area. Two people suffered smoke inhalation while trying to put the fire out, Hagg said. "Both took in quite a bit of smoke," he noted. "The garage was gutted and there's heavy smoke damage throughout the house," he stated. An investigation is underway into the cause. There's no damage estimate yet.

The “Opening day of the giving season,” it’s a time when charities, companies and individuals join together and rally for favourite causes. In the same way that retailers take part in Black Friday, the giving community comes together for GivingTuesday. GivingTuesday harnesses the potential of social media and the generosity of people around the world to bring about real change in their communities; it provides a platform for them to encourage the donation of time, resources and talents to address local challenges. It also brings together the collective power of a unique blend of partners - nonprofits, civic organizations, businesses and corporations, as well as families and individuals - to encourage and amplify small acts of kindness. Across Canada and around the world, GivingTuesday unites communities by sharing our capacity to care for and empower one another. “We have two days that are good for the economy. Now we have a day that is good for the community too.” dur h a m r e g i o n . c o m New s A d v e r t i s e r | Th u r s d a y , N o v e m b e r 2 6 , 2 0 2 0 | 20 This is to give notice that the Council of The Regional Municipality of Durham intends to pass a by-law regarding the Water and Sewer User Rates and other water and sewer related fees and charges.

For decades, society has operated with a linear economy in which resources are extracted from the ground or cut down, products are made, products are used, and finally, at the end of their useful life, products are simply discarded. The linear economy is often described as a take-make-waste model. This model, while convenient for producers and consumers, is not sustainable with our limited resources. Society is realizing the importance of using a circular economy where products are designed so that resources can be reused and reinvested into new products instead of simply being disposed of. Rather than looking for a recycling solution after a product is brought to market, thought is put into its design and manufacturing to ensure the materials can be re-used after the product has served its purpose. Instead of used products being viewed as a waste, they are viewed as resources for future products. Ontario recognized the importance of the circular economic model with the introduction of the Resource Recovery and Circular Economy Act in 2016. This Act holds companies responsible for taking their products back at their end of life and encourages using old products as inputs for new products. The model is already being applied to used tires, hazardous wastes, e-waste, and batteries. By 2026, producers will be responsible for the products and packaging placed in blue boxes, too. The hope is that these materials will become easier to recycle or re-use over time as producers become responsible for recycling them. The “circular economy” and “waste as a resource” are two important principles being considered as the Region develops our next Long-term Waste Management Plan (Waste Plan). The Region supports the notion that producers should take responsibility for important residential recycling programs like the blue box, while also finding ways to incorporate other wastes into the circular economy. For example, the ash left behind when the Region’s garbage is used to generate electricity at the Durham York Energy Centre could be incorporated into new products leaving very little going to landfill. The new Waste Plan explores this idea among others to incorporate waste into the circular economy. Have suggestions on how the Region can support the circular economy?

Santa Claus won't be rolling through Durham communities this year, but that doesn't mean the festive events won't happen. Municipalities have had to make other plans this year due to the pandemic. In some cases, the parade is being reversed, with the floats stationary and the crowds rolling by. That's what the City of Picker- ing is doing with its event on Sat- urday, Nov. 28. The stationary pa- rade will span the perimeter of the east and north border of the Chestnut Hills Developments Recreation Complex parking lot on Valley Farm Road. Those wishing to view the pa- rade had to register for a window of arrival, but registration is full and closed. Participating vehi- cles will enter off of Diefenbaker Court during their window and form up in the gravel lot, then proceed to travel through the pa- rade route and exit onto Valley Farm Road. In Port Perry, the Scugog Chamber of Commerce presents 'A Virtual Santa Claus Parade' on Dec. 5, beginning at 5 p.m. Parade enthusiasts can watch the cham- ber-made Christmas special on YouTube, at www.scugogcham- ber.ca or on Rogers TV, cable 10 in Scugog. Leading up to the parade, the Scugog chamber will also pre- sent '12 Days of Christmas to Dec. 5. Whitby is about to light it up, with a display of 100,000 holiday lights.

Jason 'Ghostrider' Ma- loney died while kite- boarding at Cherry Beach in Toronto. Maloney was from Pickering and was born in 1964. He was pulled from the water near Cherry Street and Martin Goodman Trail. Toronto police said there were reports of five to six kiteboarders in the water with at least one per- son in distress near the Cherry Beach guard sta- tion around 3:15 p.m. Officers provided life- saving measures and Ma- loney was taken to hospi- tal in life-threatening con- dition, police added. A posting on www.welo- vekiteboarding.com not- ed, "It is with a massive sad and heavy heart that we graduating our forever loved Jason 'Ghostrider' Maloney in Heaven! Our GTA community and kite- boarding community was blessed to have him as a family, friend, mentor, at- tentive ear, musician, ma- gician, philosopher and perpetual joy spreader. Truly a special man! "So cliché, but he was taken doing what he loved to do. He touched the hearts and lives of so many. We are all devastat- ed but if there is anyone you can picture looking down upon you and cheer- ing on your every little ac- complishment, kiting or otherwise... it's Jason. Rest in Please (sic) hus- band, father, son and the most amazing friend., we will never fill the void and you will be forever missed. We love you Jason 'Ghos- trider', the posting added. In a message on the www.everloved.com site, Christopher O'Grady wrote, "Jason was a good childhood friend of mine at St. Michael's Choir School. Our group still talks of him often! Saw his talent for magic develop, and he showed me how to play my first ragtime pia- no pieces: Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer" and "So- lace". Now my daughter loves playing ragtime pia- no as well, so his wonder- ful influence persists far and wide!" Yuril Kuzmin said, "I re- member talking to Jason at one of the kiteboarding parties few years back and I was surprised to learn that he knew who I was. When I asked him how he knew me he simply said: "you are the guy who had kiteboarding accident on Lake Erie"... We laughed and talked for a while, he told me his story, I told him mine. We both joked about getting second chance and how kiteboarding makes life better... I will miss Ja- son's positive energy and attitude, my thoughts are with Jason's family during this difficult time."

As a community that stands together, we need to accept others for who they are -- rather than defining people by their beliefs, cul- ture, identity, language or the colour of their skin. Yet, we have seen that simply embracing diversi- ty and inclusion is not enough. We acknowledge there is work to be done to affect change on systemic rac- ism. I understand that words are not enough. We will stand together to en- sure our policies and pro- grams are built on equity and opportunity. It's clear after the anti- Black racism town hall held on Aug. 6 that there is a need for improvement in our current anti-Black rac- ism, diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, in or- der to fulfil our responsi- bility of addressing the im- pacts of racism in Durham Region. Last month, Durham Regional Council con- firmed the actionable steps the Region is taking to ad- dress anti-Black racism, di- versity and inclusion -- both within the corpora- tion and the broader com- munity -- by approving the Anti-Black Racism Town Hall and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Follow-Up report. To ensure a strong and unified focus, the first step will be to establish a Diver- sity, Equity and Inclusion Division. This division will have well-defined goals to make sure that Regional staff are appropriately equipped, structured and supported to affect real change on sys- temic racism. The actionable steps outlined in the approved report show our commit- ment to addressing anti- Black racism and preju- dice in Durham Region. This is just the first step in helping us make Dur- ham Region a more wel- coming and inclusive place to live and grow. John Henry is the re- gional chair of Durham Region.
