Canada takes another shot at Trump with giant Lake Ontario sign

Ontario Premier Doug Ford unveiled a large Lake Ontario sign on August 29, rejecting President Trump’s recent renaming of the lake as “Lake America.” Ford said the lake’s centuries-old name would remain unchanged in Canada. Lake Ontario, one of North America’s five Great Lakes, borders Ontario and New York. Trump’s renaming order applies only to U.S. federal usage and does not dictate what Canada or international organizations call the lake, adding to tensions between the two countries following stalled trade talks and ongoing tariffs.
