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.
@CanBorder@JustinTrudeau@CBCNews when she had a confirmed case of COVID? my partner is willing to self-isolate from everyone, and yet your partner was willing to infect the Prime Minister of our country in the midst of a pandemic. bit of a double standard, no?
@CanBorder@JustinTrudeau@CBCNews the @CanBorder agent said because I "have family" it is not necessary for the father of my son to be present during his birth. I'm wondering @JustinTrudeau if these are the circumstances, why was it essential for your wife to return to Canada
@CanBorder@JustinTrudeau@CBCNews my common-law husband, an American citizen, was just denied entry into Canada despite the fact our son is due in 3 weeks. he has rented a home to self-isolate in for 2 weeks, despite the fact he has been in quarantine for the past month+.
@CanBorder given that you don't consider my husband, an American citizen, being at the birth of our son in 3 weeks as "essential" travel, I'm wondering what would qualify as "essential" travel?
@CanBorder my common law husband, an American citizen, was denied entry into canada today, despite the fact our son is due in 3 weeks, and he needs to self-isolate for 2 before being allowed in hospital. if being at the birth is not considered essential, I don't know what the f*ck is.
