I grew up on Lake Ontario. Changing the name would be silly.

Kind of like importing Chinese steel and trying to sell it to America as Canadian?

I'll never call it The Gulf of America, and I'll never call it Lake America. These people need to get their political priorities straight instead of this dumb nonsense.

Well, it's not anything like that but frick China and frick Canada for doing it. No need to rename Lake Ontario. There's a whole history behind the name and the region, it would be dumb to change it.

It would be dumb for Canada to continue to try and circumvent tariffs on China after being caught.

But here we are.

Edit to add: stop their behavior and we get a trade reset to before we discovered their transgressions.

How about renaming Rikers Island to Trumps Palace and Pen.

There isn't a pressing need to do it, but it's a handy tool to use in a trade war with the snow mexicans & I wouldn't have a problem with a rename. He can call it Lake Trump as far as I care.

Don't get too worked up over it, I say there's about a 0.0002% it actually happens.

Hell yeah brother, changing the name of a lake really sticks it to China!

I voted for the man in 2016, 2020 and 2024. But this is just becoming a clown show. The man is completely tone deaf. I wish there was someone that he would listen to from time to time.

Sure the Canadian government is going to bow down to the US demands because of renaming a lake.

If anything, it just makes it easier to sell things like reciprocating tariffs on red US state exports to their constituents.
