- As President, on Day 1, I would undo pretty much every executive order signed by President Trump. Tariffs? Gulf of America? Lake America? All of it - GONE. Day 1. PS - ending the penny I would keep. A broken clock is right 2 seconds every day. A better average that F³OTUS.@themadcentrist.comNov 1, 1:57 AM ETOriginal
- So he's bringing in a guy from the same company that has lake Ontario labeled as lake America on their maps. Carney is a fool to let that corporation near the Canadian governments and citizens data.@kiwikarl.bsky.socialOct 31, 7:33 PM ETOriginal

The standing context
Since Aug. 27, 2026, U.S. federal naming systems use “Lake America” for the lake long recorded as Lake Ontario. Canada has not adopted the change, so which name you see on a map depends on where you are. Background: what Lake America is, who calls it what right now and every dated update.
