While officials downplay the risk, environmental experts warn this material could linger for decades, potentially coating aquatic life or sinking into the creek bed. The city deployed hay bales and booms to stem the spread, while Metrolinx and the contractor shoulder cleanup costs under oversight from the Ontario Ministry of the Environment. With the subway extension slated for completion by 2030, this spill adds another layer of complexity to one of Toronto’s biggest infrastructure projects.
