U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an order directing the interior secretary to rename Lake Ontario to "Lake America" as Canada trade war persists.

Trump cannot force Canada to follow his preferred naming convention, however.

The move is reminiscent of his move last year to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America."

He can call it what he will, but Canadians still call the Rogers Centre the SkyDome over 20 years later.

    They could have just called it the Rogers Skydome, and nobody would have cared. I'm more mad about that than I am with the orange pedo having another tantrum with Lake Ontario.

    It's all just an attempted distraction from the Republicans' ruinous economic and social policy. And hoping we forget about the Epstein files. Release the full Epstein files, with only victims images and PIA redacted.

    But Rogers was just being senselessly stupid. They weren't trying to cover up being pedophiles, afaik, so why did they do it?
