Countries at COP15 agreed this morning on a “transformational” deal to preserve a third of the planet by 2030. [Here’s what we know about the commitments](. Plus, the latest on a shooting in Vaughan, the rising cost of a holiday feast, and one neighbourhood’s Christmas tradition. DON’T MISS David Richie crime [Six people are dead and another is injured after a shooting at a condo in Vaughan]( Among those dead after an “active shooter incident” in the condo building Sunday night is the suspect, who was shot by York Regional Police, Alessia Passafiume reports. Officers had been called to the building around 7:20 p.m. following a report of a male active shooter, a spokesperson said. Police added there is no further threat to public safety. [Take a closer look at the scenes unfolding amid the “fluid” investigation](. - More: Police said they have notified the Special Investigations Unit of the suspect’s death.

The cost of feed grains, such as corn and wheat, are up, while the price of bread has risen 20 per cent in the past year. Turkey and stuffing prices, therefore, along with costs for farmers raising beef cattle, lamb, and pigs, have increased. There are few areas of relief, however, and plenty of tips for shoppers to avoid spending more than they have to. [Josh Rubin reports on how to whip up a holiday feast on a budget the whole family will gobble up](. - By the numbers: Turkeys are reaching prices like $4, $4.50 or $4.75 per pound, said Sylvain Charlebois, head of the AgriFood Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University.

Richard Lautens/Toronto Star KRINGLEWOOD [Giant Santas have long loomed large on the lawns of this Toronto street. What happens when someone moves?]( As part of a tradition nearly a decade in the making, more than 55 Kris Kringles bounce around in the December wind in this Moore Park neighbourhood, writes Janet Hurley. One front yard, however, sports a for sale sign rather than a Santa — which begs the question: how can residents on Inglewood Drive keep the tradition alive? The answer may lie with Amy Westin, a business owner and mom of three, who put up the first inflatable in 2013 and moved out of the neighbourhood four years later. [Here’s how her family included a “Santa clause” when it came time to sell their home](. - More: Westin moved out in 2017 but never considered taking the Santa with her to the new neighbourhood. “It was way beyond me and had a life of its own,” she said. - Wait, what? Days after Westin’s family put up the inflatable Santa, a neighbour hosting a Christmas party asked if she wouldn’t mind if they put up a Santa too. At the party, guests talked about how funny it would be if there were more. Over the next few days, others popped up.
