Trump renames Lake Ontario to Lake America

President Trump signed an executive order changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America, following his earlier renaming of the Gulf of Mexico.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney publicly demolished the bid, while critics note the lake spans both countries and Canada was not consulted.

The order has generated a wave of reactions, from a hat maker seeing politics and sales in the change to commentators questioning the president's priorities.

The renaming comes amid escalating trade tensions between the US and Canada.
