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.
@CityNewsTraffic @CityNewsVAN@sonicradio@jack969 Took me 2 hours and 10 minutes to get from Langley to downtown this morning. Left the house at 0700, arrived at 0910.
Today, the Humboldt Broncos Organization remembers all of the players, staff, and families affected by April 6, 2018.
Forever in our thoughts.
