- President Trump signed an order renaming Lake Ontario "Lake America" in the U.S. geographic naming service as part of an escalating trade spat with Canada — though he can't force Canada to use the name.
- The move came after the U.S. slapped 50% tariffs on $20 billion in Canadian goods; Canada retaliated with $20 billion in tariffs on U.S. products like steel, dairy, appliances and farm equipment.
- Trump staged the signing at the Resolute Desk with maps reading "Lake America" and joked about renaming other waters, calling Canada "the worst" to deal with on trade.
