U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an order directing the interior secretary to rename Lake Ontario to “Lake America” as Canada trade war persists.
Trump cannot force Canada to follow his preferred naming convention, however.
The move is reminiscent of his move last year to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America.”
Obama reverted it’s name to Denali, but of course Trump undid that.
Ultimately I think the solution is to call the mountain itself Denali (because of course that’s its name), and if you have to placate all the idiots in Ohio, rename the national park (because the park is a federally administered thing) to “McKinley.”
