With the polar vortex last year, there sure were icebergs in the harbour. Not big enough to sink the Titanic, but still it was almost frozen solid! What they're doing at Union Station is digging out the basement to make a shopping concourse. I've been down there before construction started and there was machinery from 1918 when the building was built such as steam-to-water heat exhangers and air tanks with rivets the size of half-dollars. All that stuff has been scrapped I imagine. Plus lots and lots of asebstos! So I guess the construction was disturbing to the rats eating thier garbage.
"If it's garbage, why are we stealing it? "
"Shut up and eat your garbage!"
Not for the first time I wonder what's unique about the construction at Toronto Union Station that makes the rats newsworthy. Why did noone feel they needed to write about any rat problems during any of the other construction in the neighborhood: CN Tower, Blue Jay stadium, and the many other nearby big buildings?

Maybe the station's going to sink? Any icebergs in Toronto?
They can migrate to Buffalo Central Station.
They might be loooking for work in a French restaurant. There's a good one (The Select Bistro) not far away.

It appears commuters aren't the only ones being displaced by the $1-billion renovation of Toronto's downtown Union Station.
All the digging during the massive project has displaced countless rats from their long-established burrows, said a pest control expert who appeared on CBC Radio's Metro Morning on Monday....
