stupidest shit ever. How tf is this 80 year old man so fucking childish?

How tf does the name of some lake, or gulf or whatever matter to anyone? I don't give a fuck if they call it Lake FuckMeInTheAss... is it going to make groceries and housing cheaper? No? Then why are we wasting time with it?

Canada should respond by recognizing it as Lake Inferior

All bodies of water are now named America, its not confusing at all huh?

Nope, from the American Ocean to the American Ocean we've got so many GREAT bodies of water!

Nah, water is water. I just don't understand why Trump didn't rename Canada and Greenland to America. Wouldn't it be the cheapest solution to his problems?

We still have time for him to rename the planet as “America.”

Ontario was named after Lake Ontario. So does it now get renamed to America?

"No Mr president, you live in the united States. America is a different place that's a part of Canada"

This petulant Orange Turd, can change names all he wants, outside of his shit hole country the rest of the world will continue to call it Lake Ontario.

What an utter imbecile.

I'm by no means a fan of Dougie Ford but I can tell you the ONE thing you don't do is knock his brother. The people of Toronto have been suffering because of that.

At this point he could probably get away with naming it Lake MyButt.
