Today, you still can’t print those obscenities in a community newspaper. You can, however, hear them nightly on TV, liberally sprinkled throughout episodes of The Sopranos. Heck, you can often hear Tony Soprano string all seven together in the same sentence when he’s really on a roll. But I digress. I bring up the Carlin bit because there are seven words being bandied about all too frequently today that aren’t banned from the airwaves and should be. And they are not coming out of the mouth of some edgy comedian. They are courtesy of people who ought to know better, our corporate and world leaders. What’s more, you can list all of the words in the newspaper and nobody seems to mind. They are: crisis, catastrophe, calamity, emergency, collapse, recession and depression. They are being used in reference to the worldwide economy and we’re hearing them on an hourly basis, it seems. I say enough already. You’re scaring the daylights out of everybody. Last I checked, fear-mongering wasn’t part of your portfolios. You’re paid the big bucks to lead. So do it. If there are problems, and it’s very apparent from your incessant whining that there are, roll up your sleeves, and take care of them. The time wasted delivering this constant doom and gloom play-by-play could be better spent. Besides, it’s
very unbecoming. As far back as kindergarten we were taught to remain calm in a difficult time. We had repeated fire drills during which we were told the importance of maintaining our composure. You sounded the alarm yourselves in November and all you’ve accomplished since is to make everybody around you nervous. It’s high time for saner heads to prevail. And I think I can help. Instead of dining out on the seven words you’re obsessed with, try replacing them with these seven words: Focus, as in keep to the task at hand only. Urgency, as in don’t rest until solutions are found. Accountability, as in, step up and take ownership of your decisions for once. Transparency, as in, no more surreptitious, behind-closeddoors deals. Trust, as in earn it from all of us with your actions. Confidence, as in instill it in us by your deeds. And last but certainly not least, hope, as in, fill us with it with every syllable out of your mouths. So please, no more of this ‘end of the world is upon us’ stuff, OK? Besides, everybody knows that according to the Mayan calendar, the end of the world is a long way off. Their prophecy states unequivocally that it doesn’t come until the Leafs win another Stanley Cup. So you see, there’s absolutely no need to panic. I mean, have the Mayans ever been wrong before?

When you throw food scraps in your Blue Bin, food residue and particles get soaked up by paper and can ruin large batches of otherwise good recyclables. In fact, last year an estimated 45,000 tonnes of organic waste and garbage was mistakenly put into recycling. Meaning a lot of ruined recyclables ended up in the City’s landfill. And that is a very bad thing indeed. Learn what goes in your Blue Bin and what doesn’t at toronto.ca/recycleright

Ethan Faria, 2, gets set for a session of physiotherapy at the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital recently. Ethan lost both his legs below the knee, his right hand and fingers on his left hand in July 2015 as a result of contracting the bacterial infection haemophilus influenzae type B.
Two-year-old is thriving one year after amputations; Children’s book launching in November in his honour The first thing you notice about Ethan Faria is his mop of curly brown hair. The second thing is his chubby cheeks and big smile, the latter of which lights up when playing with firetrucks or munching on bacon, his favourite food. The almost two-and-a-half-year-old has come a long way since a bacterial infection claimed both legs, his left hand, and most of the fingers on his right hand. The then 14-month-old baby from North York was first admitted to North York General Hospital July 24, 2015 after his family doctor became concerned with what a chest X-ray showed after the youngster developed a slight cough and fever. After his lips began turning blue, the young child was rushed by ambulance to The Hospital for Sick Children. It was then his parents, Rachel and Humberto, were told by two doctors their young son may not make it. After three days of running tests, Ethan was diagnosed with Haemophilus influenzae (Hi) type B, a disease caused by bacterial infection. Typically the disease is mild, but severe infection can occur if the bacteria gets into certain areas of the body, including the bloodstream and brain. Ethan’s brain and heart were free of the infection. Ethan’s legs were amputated just below the knees, and soon afterwards surgeons removed his right hand just above the wrist and partially removed three fingers and the thumb on his left hand, leaving his middle finger.
According to the Public Health Agency of Canada, there are several types of Hi bacteria, with Ethan’s type B the most serious strand. Hi bacteria can be passed through coughs and sneezes from an infected person, or touching objects which were recently exposed to an infected person’s mucus or saliva, then rubbing your eyes, nose or mouth. After spending three months at Sickkids and enduring numerous skin grafts, Ethan was ready to come home. The transition wasn’t easy at first. If he was placed on the floor he would just sit there, and Rachel was resigned to the fact this might be their new reality for the foreseeable future – a reality which also included tube feeding Ethan and administering needles twice a day to prevent blood clots. “It was very overwhelming to say the least,” Rachel said. “There were many days where I thought, is this the way our life is going to be like? You accept it and keep going.” But thankfully Ethan has flourished, learning to roll, crawl, and even feed himself. These days he can be found playing with cars or lining up his toys, spending time at the park, visiting animals at African Lion Safari, and watching his favourite shows The Wiggles, Paw Patrol, Barney and Friends, and Dino Dan. And in April, Ethan was fitted with prosthetic legs, which he is learning to use during physiotherapy sessions four times a week at Holland Bloorview

Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, which he has attended since January. He also uses a walker at both his Bathurst Street and Steeles Avenue area home and at Bloorview. On the day The Mirror observed Ethan during a session, physiotherapist Lisa Engle and Rachel worked together to get Ethan into the prosthetics while he played with a firetruck, oblivious to the attention. Once his legs were on, Engle held Ethan up as he took several steps before the walker was brought over. “When he first came in he was deconditioned,” Engle said. “Our goals were to work on overall level of strength and transitioning from one position to another, like rolling, which contributes to his independence and getting around.” Ethan is now learning to sit, lie down, and stand with his new legs, and can use the walker on his own with supervision. “Our goal is getting him walking around at home and walking around the community,” Engle said. “He’s the hardest working two-year-old I’ve ever met.” Rachel marvels at how independent her son has become, adding he also attends music and speech therapy at Bloorview. “He’s learning to talk again, walk again,” she said, adding Ethan’s speech development was halted during his time at Sickkids. “We will raise him to believe anything he wants to do, do it and not be afraid to do it. We look at Ethan and thank God he made it.” Knowing Rachel and Humberto faced financial distress due to Ethan’s situation, as she immediately left her customer service job when her son fell ill and has not gone back to work, solely relying on Humberto’s construction job income, her friends set up a GoFundMe page in August 2015 with the goal of raising $50,000. To date, $101,331 has been collected. “There were beautiful heartfelt messages from strangers,” Rachel said of the page’s comments. “I didn’t look at the amount (raised). This touched so many people.” The public will have a chance to meet Ethan when a children’s book inspired by him is launched Wednesday, Nov. 16 at Artscape Sandbox, 301 Adelaide St. W., from 6 to 9:30 p.m. Written by Kari Ward and published by Wire Publishing, a portion of proceeds from Marley and Maverick Find Ethan’s Magic Legs will go to the Faria family and to Sickkids. “He’s taught me anything is possible and to be the best mom I can be,” Rachel said of Ethan. “He smiles everyday.” To purchase the book visit www.ethansmagicbook.com

Transit Project Assessment Process - Public Meetings Our Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) is now home to nearly 7 million people – heading towards 10 million by 2041. This growth is a sign of success and opportunity. But as we grow, so too must our transportation network – the lifeblood that connects this great region and each of our communities. Metrolinx, an agency of the Government of Ontario, is bringing more transit and more connections to more places within the GTHA. Every community transit project, big or small, plays a vital role in the regional transportation system. We want to share our plans and get your feedback. Starting in November we will be hosting community open houses to share information and updates on three of Metrolinx’s projects to build new track and electrification infrastructure. We will be seeking your input on these specific plans and feedback on proposed mitigation strategies: GO Rail Network Electrification Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP) (Hydro One as co-proponents): gotransit.com/electrification • Environmental Baseline Condition Reports have been prepared, Impact Assessment Reports to evaluate potential environmental effects of the project are underway, and stakeholder consultation is in progress. The project is currently in the Pre-Planning Phase of the TPAP. • The focus of this round of public meetings will be to provide an update on the project and conceptual design of the Traction Power Supply and Distribution components.
