## Resource

The U.S. President just renamed Lake Ontario to “Lake America” — a move that’s sparking outrage, costing federal agencies millions, and reigniting debates over identity, geography, and government overreach. While the renaming could cost hundreds of thousands (similar to previous Gulf of Mexico name-change estimates), locals like those in Oswego, New York, see it as an attack on their heritage. Polls show most Americans oppose it, and politicians from both sides of the border are condemning the decision. Even Ontario’s Premier responded with a defiant new sign — reminding everyone this lake has always been, and will always be, Lake Ontario.
