Google Maps now show ‘Lake America’ not ‘Lake Ontario’

Google Maps has renamed Lake Ontario to Lake America for users in the U.S. This change follows an executive order from President Donald Trump, as confirmed by a Google statement. Consequently, Google is facing criticism, and Canadian politicians are actively scrubbing government websites that embed Google Maps. These efforts aim to ensure the body of water remains labeled as Lake Ontario on official platforms despite the updates implemented by the technology company for American users.
