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.
@SchoolOfMotion Okay, I found it through the Instagram page, but I had to do some digging. The code really should be on the front page of the SoM website.
@andrewglobal Andrew! I'm in the same boat as you, also precisely after 11 years as well! It's a time for change and new opportunities even if things seem uncertain right now.
Honest question. When all the journalists are gone in Canada, who is going to tell the story of the corrupt politician, the homeless man that can’t afford housing, the mother that is getting gouged at the grocery store, the major flood inundating your city in a changing climate?
