Canadian History Ehx Apr 22, 2023

The "hogtown" nickname for Toronto comes from the fact that the William Davies Company processed millions of pigs in the city from 1854-1927.
In 1921, William Davies died from injuries sustained when a goat butted him off a hillside while he was peeing by the side of the road.
