It looks like red-light cameras in York Region are getting the green light.

The Toronto Sun reports the Ontario Ministry of Transportation has approved a request by York Region to run a red-light enforcement program starting on January 1.

An evaluation of red-light camera programs across the province found such cameras were followed by reduced right-angle collisions that cause injury and death by 25 per cent.

Toronto currently issues about 30-to-60 red-light tickets per camera, per month.

The following is Justin Trudeau's key-note address at the RIS Convention in Toronto.

Trudeau made some solid points, and he is right in that diversity is not about merely tolerating each other. It is about accepting, respecting and understanding each other. A great reminder to all about peace, love and happiness as we head into Christmas and a New Year!

Full speech is attached below:

As-salamu Alaykum.

I am here today because I believe in Freedom of Expression.

I am here today because I believe in Freedom of Peaceful Assembly.

I am here today because I believe in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which guarantees those sacred things to you, to me, and to all people with whom we share this land.

But mostly, I am here today because I believe in you.

I believe in the contributions you have made to our country. And I know that together we will make even greater contributions in the future.

Let me begin with a story. A story from your history. One that I hope will stay in your minds as you think about our common future.

Many generations ago, a young man was confronted by traditional religious elders. The kind of folks that today we might call fundamentalists or even extremists.

You see, a centuries-old conflict was raging. Prominent people on each side were convinced of their rightness. And loudly proclaimed that the other side was not only wrong, but wrong because of their religious beliefs, their culture, and their identity.

And as is far too often the case, these leaders reserved special scorn for those within their ranks who sought common ground with others. They understood the threat that moderation and compromise present to those who preach rigid doctrine.

This young man was struggling at the time. He was just starting out in the world. He was facing many of the same issues that, I suspect, you are facing today. How do I remain true to my values, to my culture, while I serve the interests of the society to which I belong?

He knew who he was, and what he believed. He was proud of his heritage, his culture, his religion. But he parted ways, decisively, with those within his community who would use these things to build walls.

But then, he was granted a remarkable opportunity, to address a distinguished audience of political, religious, and business leaders.

And so he challenged them to think beyond the narrow confines of the present and to look towards the future.

He said “Providence has united together on this corner of Earth populations of different origins and creeds. Is it not manifest that these populations must have together common and identical interests?”

That young man is a very important part of your history, as I said. But he would not go on to become an Imam, a holy man, or a Caliph.

He would, however, go on to become, among many more important things, my second-favourite Prime Minister.

The year was 1877. The place was Quebec City. And the brave young man’s name was Wilfrid Laurier.

He was 35 years old, with barely three years of service in Parliament to recommend him.

And he had made a difficult choice.

Rather than fall in line with his elders and marshal his already prodigious talents in exclusive service of what he called his race, he chose an improbable new path.

One that honoured what was good and noble about his own culture, yes. But one that used those very things to serve a higher purpose: to find common ground between people of differing beliefs.

Laurier saw something clearly, perhaps more clearly than any other Canadian; he saw that here, in this place, a new idea was taking shape. A new way of living together just might be possible.

He knew that his was a country founded and built by people who had warred against one another for centuries on their home continent: English vs French, Catholic vs Protestant. Early on, these murderous conflicts crossed the Atlantic Ocean with them.

But then a unique thing happened. Despite the fact that the English were victorious on the battlefield, the same measure of freedom was gained by each side.

In one of the most moving passages of that speech, speaking about the obelisk on the Plains of Abraham, Laurier said:

“In what other country under the sun, can you find a similar monument reared to the memory of the conquered as well as of the conqueror? In what other country under the sun, will you find the names of the conquered and the conqueror equally honored and occupying the same place in respect of the population? Where is the Canadian who, comparing his country even with the freest countries, would not feel proud of the institutions that protect him?”

Now, the point of this story is not that remarkable moment in our history. The point is everything that has happened since.

This is our inheritance. One that has been renewed by successive generations to this very day.

That two peoples who had been enemies came together to build institutions — and a Constitution — that guaranteed freedom not only for one another, but for all who would come after them.

They were joined in this great project over the years by people of every conceivable culture, religion and ethnicity.

Waves and waves of young men and women who chose to emphasize what was kind-hearted about their own traditions. Free people who chose to use the generosity of spirit that is the root of all faith, to find common ground with those whose beliefs differed from their own.

As it is written in the Holy Qur’an:

‘The true servants of the Most Merciful are those who behave gently and with humility on earth, and whenever the foolish quarrel with them, they reply with [words of] peace.’
(al-Furqan 25: 63)

It has never been easy. This road has never been smooth or straight. Generations of Canadians had to overcome deep differences. They made a deliberate choice to turn their backs on rancour and conflict.

But today, because of them, we are all blessed to live in the most diverse country in the history of the world. One of the most peaceful and most prosperous.

One that has now moved beyond the goal of mere tolerance. Because saying “I tolerate you” is to grudgingly allow you to breathe the same air, to walk the same earth. And while there are many places in the world where tolerance is still just a far-off dream, in Canada, we are beyond that. So let us not use the word tolerance. Let us speak instead of acceptance, understanding, respect, and friendship.

Here, we have come to a new realization, together: that a country can be great not in spite of its diversity, but because of its diversity.

This is our story now, yours and mine. The story of our country, Canada.

So as you reflect this weekend about the future, take heart. Know that the struggles we are facing have been faced down before. Know that the conflicting feelings in our hearts have been felt before. Know that compromise and moderation are not the path of weakness, but of courage and strength. That there is always a positive path in this country for all who seek common ground.

Most important, remember this: our inheritance must be constantly renewed by those who share Laurier’s vision.

When people come together to create opportunities for one another, the dreams we hold in common will crowd out the fears that would divide us.

For it is not the political class, but the middle class, that unites this country. Open to all, our broad and diverse middle class is Canada’s centre of gravity. Good people. People with common hopes and common challenges, coming together to find common ground.

There are already too many forces in the world that drive us into separate camps, that isolate us, and make us suspicious of one another.

Yesterday, protesters tried to prevent me from speaking at a school because of my stance defending gay marriage and women’s rights.

And as you know, some conservatives tried to stir up controversy about my appearance here today. They tried to appeal to people’s fears and prejudices, the very things that this gathering was founded to overcome.

Now, I respect and defend their right to express their opinions.

But, I want you to know that I will always stand up to the politics of division and fear. It is short-sighted to pit groups of Canadians against one another. It may make some feel good for a little while, or even work politically in the short-term.

But it is no way to build a country. Least of all this country. It is not who we are.

We are here today to do what we Canadians have been doing together for generations. We are honouring our diversity through friendship and understanding, so that we can build from it a common, positive future.

So I join you in your commitment to that more hopeful future. Let us pledge ourselves to building a country that brings people together; that finds the highest virtue in compromise, moderation, and common ground.

Nearly thirty years after that first speech, then in his third term as our Prime Minister, Laurier put it this way to an audience in Edmonton.

“We do not want or wish that any individual should forget the land of his origin. Let them look to the past, but let them still more look to the future. Let them look to the land of their ancestors, but let them look also to the land of their children. Let them become Canadians and give their heart, their soul, their energy, and all their power to Canada”

That was Laurier’s wish for us. And it is mine for you. Be hopeful and positive, my friends.

Your country needs you.

May peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you.

TORONTO – The Canadian dollar was higher late morning Monday as commodity prices bounced off the lows of the session and the U.S. currency weakened.

The loonie gained 0.11 of a cent to 101.42 cents US while the currency also continued to find lift from Friday’s much stronger then expected December employment report.

The economy created 40,000 jobs last month. Economists thought that only about 5,000 positions would be turned out in December after job creation surged by 59,000 in November.

The loonie had been lower earlier while the greenback strengthened against many other currencies on speculation that the Federal Reserve could end its bond-buying stimulus program in the second half of 2013.

The American currency has strengthened in recent days after minutes from the Fed’s latest policy meeting last month showed a split over how long to continue the purchases. Some policymakers have concerns that the continued bond purchases, known as quantitative easing, would destabilize the economy.

The February crude contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange erased early losses and gained seven cents to US$93.16 a barrel.

March copper dipped a penny to US$3.68 a pound while February bullion shed 90 cents to US$1,648 an ounce.

Traders also took in a move by global regulators to ease new rules obliging lenders to set capital aside. The so-called Basel III rules are a set of new international standards to make sure banks don’t fall back into the sort of trouble that caused the 2008 financial crash. On Sunday, the officials setting those rules delayed the date by which certain amounts of cash had to be readily available.

Amid the biggest beneficiaries on equity markets were ailing Spanish banks, which some had feared would struggle to meet the new cash requirements.

Your landlords send you a letter informing you that rent is going up $50 per month. Do you move? Probably not. Instead, you suck it up and curse them under your breath.

Over time, we adjust to gradual price increases but only because they come in baby steps. When I was a kid, I remember $2.50 Tuesdays at the movies. Today, you can pay almost $20 for a single adult admission. Had the jump been instantaneous from $2.50 to $20, I would have stopped going to the movies. But because it took place over time, I saw Skyfall multiple times.

Baby steps. They don’t sound like much but they can be key to your financial success .

When I was a financial adviser, I would ask clients if they wanted to increase their automatic monthly contributions by $10, or 10 per cent, or whatever, every New Year. After getting used to the initial drain on their cash flow when setting up the original contribution, a small subsequent increase was no big deal.

But consider this: Two investors contribute $1,200 per year to a portfolio that grows at 5 per cent per year for 20 years, except one increases his contributions by 5 per cent every January 1st. By doing so, he ends up with more than 50 per cent more money ($63,679.14 vs $41,663.10).

That first 5 per cent increase is only an extra $5 per month. The 5 per cent increase in year 20 is only an extra $12.03 per month.

Turns out, those baby steps really add up.

This doesn’t apply exclusively to investing. Many people are too frustrated with the markets to invest, but they could apply the same principle to paying off their mortgage. Or saving up for a vacation. And with just over 360 days until Christmas 2013, inflation alone would dictate an increase in the cost of presents next year versus this year.

As the New Year begins, think of the various ways you could increase your financial position with various baby steps. You won’t feel it much, if at all, today, but the difference over the long haul could make you curse yourself under your breath for not doing it.

OTTAWA – Canada has at least one less thing to worry about after its largest trading partner found a way to avoid the much-feared “fiscal cliff.”

Talks between Democrat and Republican politicians in the United States went down to the wire, but a deal was finally reached on New Year’s Eve, passed by the Senate that day, and by the House of Representatives on New Year’s Day. President Barack Obama is expected to sign it into law soon.

The compromise put a stop on hundreds of billions of dollars worth of tax increases and spending cuts that were kicking in Jan. 1, which economists feared would cause a recession that could have spilled into Canada.

Avery Shenfeld, chief economist for CIBC World Markets, said Canadian policy-makers are no doubt pleased with the turn of events.

“There’ll be a sigh of relief in Ottawa and at the Bank of Canada that they don’t have to completely reverse course,” Shenfeld said.

Mark Carney, who’ll be finishing off his stint as Bank of Canada governor before taking on the same role with the Bank of England this summer, might have been considering interest rate cuts to stimulate the economy if a fiscal cliff deal had not been reached, despite his expressed worries over rising household debt that comes largely as a result of already-low interest rates.

And the federal government might have seen its plans for deficit reduction thrown off track if economic realities demanded stimulus action as opposed to spending cuts.

Finance Minister Jim Flaherty issued a statement Wednesday saying: “Canada welcomes the agreement reached between the president and the Congress that protects the U.S. economy in the short term.

“That said, there remain a number of significant risks to the U.S. economic outlook. It is my hope that leaders in the United States continue to work together to develop future action that will put the U.S. fiscal position on a sustainable path.”

Flaherty added that the Canadian government “will continue to monitor all global economic situations carefully and stay focused on keeping Canada's economy strong. That means creating jobs, growth and long-term prosperity.”

There was no reaction Wednesday from the Bank of Canada on the U.S. fiscal deal, though officials there pointed to comments Carney made in Toronto last month, when he said, “if there were not to be a resolution of the fiscal cliff . . . the U.S. economy would go into recession and that would have a very direct impact on Canada. It would also have a material financial-market impact. And the combination of the two . . . might necessitate a policy reaction.”

Despite all the drama, Shenfeld said it was unlikely that U.S. politicians would not have come to some arrangement to save their own economy.

“We avoided something that was very unlikely to happen, which was that U.S. politicians would be so dysfunctional that they would drive the U.S. into recession, and take Canada along with it,” he said.

Still, Douglas Porter, deputy chief economist for BMO Capital Markets, said the U.S. resolution on the fiscal cliff is “quite significant” for Canada.

“We are highly dependent on the outlook for the U.S. economy, especially now given that most of our domestic drivers have cooled down or even stalled out,” Porter said, in reference to things such as Canada’s housing and consumer markets. “The thing that we need to take the Canadian economy to the next level is a more complete recovery in the U.S., and, frankly, the biggest risk to that U.S. recovery was this potential fiscal cliff.”

Porter said the idea of a “cliff” was misleading in that no immediate impact was anticipated with no deal in place by the new year. He said Jan. 1 was a “soft deadline,” and the economic effects from the automatic tax hikes and government spending reductions would be “accumulated” as the year progressed.

Stock markets would have suffered during the first few weeks of the year had the fiscal cliff threat not been put to rest, Porter said. Stocks in both Canada and the U.S. saw gains on Wednesday, the first trading day of 2013 and first since U.S. politicians reached a fiscal deal.

“I think (investors) would have been very concerned as of (Jan. 2) if we didn’t have a deal in hand, but I think that concern would’ve built through January and February as the effects accumulated,” Porter said.

While Porter said there are longer-term fiscal issues that U.S. policy-makers need to work out, he added that country is a long way from facing the kind of financial crisis seen in European countries such as Greece and Italy.

“I saw some U.S. congressmen talking about comparing the U.S. to Greece, and frankly, that’s ridiculous,” Porter said.

He said because of its dominant position in the world economy and the U.S. dollar’s role as an international reserve currency, the U.S. is “allowed a lot more leeway than almost anybody else” from credit markets. Porter added that since the U.S. has its own currency – unlike European countries that use the euro – it can set its own monetary policy to correspond to economic conditions.

“The U.S. can basically print money if need be,” Porter said. “And also, their currency can act as a bit of a safety valve; if investors were really concerned about the U.S. outlook, the U.S. dollar would depreciate, and that would make U.S. exports more competitive.”

Follow these step-by-step instructions and decorating ideas for a super easy festivity that you and your friends can enjoy into the new year.

1. A few days before
Hit the liquor store and grab a cartful of Prosecco — it’s usually more budget-friendly than champagne. (And make sure to remind your friends that the party is BYOB.)

Visit the dollar store and pick up the following: Mason jars, tealight candles, toothpicks, colourful paper, plastic champagne glasses, sparklers, white, gold and silver balloons.

See if you can rent a projector – it’ll be worth it! Then search the linen closet for white flat sheet.

Call a cleaning service to book a post-party clean-up.

2. The day before

Make a big batch of cupcakes. Here are some delicious recipes to try: lemony cupcakes,strawberry and lemon cream cheese cupcakes, salty caramel cupcakes, chocolate cupcakes and vanilla cupcakes. Using the toothpicks and colourful paper, create little flags with 2013 written on them.

Go to the grocery store deli and pick up chips, crackers and a couple trays worth of meats, pickles and cheeses to feed any hungry partiers, plus several large bags of ice.

3. The day of

Pick up the projector. Have the salesperson show you how to hook it up to a laptop, and make sure you have all the cords you need. Tack up your white flat sheet to the wall, and hook up the projector to a laptop with a countdown clock on it. Dim the lights to party levels and you can have your very own large-scale countdown at midnight!

Do a clean-up of the house. Here are some quick and easy tips to get your house party ready!

Put tealight candles in the Mason jars and scatter them about for ambiance.

Blow up all the balloons.

Put out the party snacks.

Fill a few buckets or bowls with ice, place them on the table and chill the bottles of Prosecco in there. (Guests can open a new bottle themselves every time one runs out!)

4. Before midnight

Hand out the sparklers just before midnight so your guests can usher in the new year with some old-fashioned fun!

Once the midnight kisses are complete, bring out the platter of 2013 cupcakes and distribute.

The day after: Do nothing! Your pre-scheduled cleanup service will do it all for you!

Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
