Declining water levels at Lake Wabukayne, a stormwater pond located at 2610 Inlake Court near Erin Mills Parkway and Britannia Road, sparked several discussions on Reddit, where community membersIn a statement to blogTO, the City confirmed that it was advised of low water levels at the lake on the morning of June 12.
"Shortly after, staff investigated and it appeared that overnight someone bypassed the safety fencing and opened the gate that controls the Lake's water level," a city spokesperson told blogTO."Water levels dropped by approximately one metre with some water remaining in the middle to downstream areas. No other concerns were identified with the operation of Lake Wabukayne and the water loss does not appear to have had a significant impact on the environment or local wildlife.
To deter others from tampering with the lake in the future, the City says staff have since removed the hand-wheel that opens the gate.Toronto remains the most expensive Canadian city for international workersGlobal News anchor Farah Nasser announces departure from network$6.4B Ontario bridge's big moment arrives with an iconic cross-border handshake
