US President Donald Trump escalates his political standoff with Canada by renaming Lake Ontario as ‘Lake America’ for US federal use. Trump signed an executive order directing the change, but it does not force Canada or international bodies to adopt the new name. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has rejected Trump’s move, saying Canadians will continue to call it Lake Ontario and highlighting the name’s more than 400-year history and Indigenous Wendat origins.
The trade war between the United States and Canada is escalating as Donald Trump threatens to raise tariffs on Canadian cars, trucks, automotive parts and steel to 50%. Mark Caney and other Canadian politicians have weighed in on the situation with biting remarks. Ontario Premier Doug Ford also fired back at Trump, while Canada prepares new measures to protect workers and businesses and potentially impose retaliatory tariffs.
