Toronto has removed almost 4 million cubic metres of gunk from a polluted waterway Toronto

PortsToronto has managed to remove exactly 3,832,581 cubic metres of that sludge to date. For context, the Rogers Centre's volume is around 1.6 million cubic metres, meaning the port authority has pulled out enough debris to fill two and a half of the massive domed stadiums.

If the gunk is not removed regularly, the build-up could cause the river to back up and flood, and gross debris could spill into Toronto's harbour.
