Every ship entering the Great Lakes goes through the Welland Canal, located fully in Canada. There’s no other option. $26.3 billion of US trade depends on it. Would be a shame if tolls skyrocketed or it was transit-taxed heavily…
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
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.
@WhiteHouse What a useless order. And the whole world will still call it Lake Ontario.
Renaming a lake as "retaliation" makes as much sense as renaming your neighbor's dog because he won't let you park in his driveway.
I am on the edge of Israel’s illegal occupation belt across southern Lebanon, at least 15 kilometers from Lebanon’s border with occupied Palestine but my European internet provider just notified me that I’m in Israel.
Can you we just take a moment to think about how diabolical the Israeli pager terror attack in Lebanon was? They planted electronics with bombs. It’s insane how this was glossed over by mainstream media.
No, I’m a genocide-loathing Jew.
My grandparents survived Auschwitz. Seeing the numbers on their arms growing up taught me one simple thing: “Never again” meant “never again” for anyone.
Israeli soldiers implicated in the execution of 15 paramedics (who were only caught after a recording of the murders was recovered from the buried bodies) have been invited to run in the Sydney marathon.
But don't complain..that would be anti-semitic..
Dolly Parton addressed health concerns about her on May 4, 2026
She incredibly compared herself to an old antique car that needed a new engine, transmission, new pistons and spark plugs.
“They didn’t say anything about my mental health” she joked.
She clearly had a ton of plans and active projects for this year, including a Nashville museum and hotel, writing, recording, getting on stage in 5 inch heels.
RIP Dolly. Her greatness makes it feel like 80 is way too soon. 🧡
BREAKING: Maj. Jason Watson has just been charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice for three violations of Article 88 for “contemptuous” remarks about Trump.
Yes, you heard that right. He was just charged for calling for Trump’s impeachment.
A president who has service members arrested for speaking out against the president, isn’t a president. They are a dictator.
Video footage shows an Israeli MP smashing a Palestinian monument with a hammer while Israeli soldiers stood nearby.
The Israeli military said it authorised and provided security for the trip, but did not grant permission to demolish the monument.

Israel's UN Ambassador Danny Danon: "It's not occupied land. This is our land. We have historical and biblical rights. To call us settlers is a disgrace. Jewish communities are here to stay."
So by that logic, the Bible also mentions Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia as part of "Greater Israel."
After watching this, if someone still thinks these lunatics are interested in peace, they are willingly an idiot
@mlchealth Waited 13hrs at CAH ED about 3yrs ago. Unwell very elderly lady was to be admitted so her worried family said their goodbyes. But after they left she was brought back into waiting area as no beds available yet so she was alone. Spent the night with her, she really needed help 😥
