The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.

This is not what America, or anywhere, should be

From AP’s archives: Ozzy Osbourne said music changed his life, crediting The Beatles for inspiring him early on.
The Black Sabbath frontman and godfather of heavy metal died at age 76, just weeks after his farewell show.
Dear Fuckface,
Canada is not a major source of fentanyl trafficking into the US. Canada accounts for only 0.1–0.2% of total U.S. border seizures. In 2024, 43 lbs were seized, vs 21,000 lbs at your southern border.
So, shove your 35% tariffs you fucking bitch.
Sincerely,
🇨🇦
Trump supporter Kevin O’Leary just completely demolished Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ on Fox Business News:
“I don’t think anyone reads these things. I read it. I read all these bills through the eyes of small business… It almost seems unfair and unAmerican to do that to small business. You can’t do that to small business. Somebody should fix this in the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ because it’s not beautiful for small business. It’s totally unfair.”
The nation elected a man who insists he’s a brilliant businessman.
And after 116 days, his management of the economy destroyed the nation’s perfect credit rating, previously unscathed since 1917.

Mike Pence says there are “very real constitutional issues” with Trump accepting a $400M luxury jet from Qatar:
“I think it’s just a bad idea, and my hope is the president will think better of it,” Pence told NBC’s Meet the Press.

Donald Trump’s Middle East trip wasn’t much of a master class—he took credit for a bunch of Joe Biden deals, accepted a bribe from the Qataris, and attacked Taylor Swift.
Nobody says it better than The Boss.
If Trump thinks he can bully this guy, he really doesn’t know who he’s messing with. Am I right?
