Thousands of fish have also died from the spill, they estimate, and other animals such as frogs, beavers, muskrats and turtles are also impacted. In a statement to CP24, the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks said it “takes all spills and threats to the natural environment very seriously.”
