AI Fusion Summary

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday to rename Lake Ontario as Lake America, effective immediately. The order directs the Interior Department to update the Geographic Names Information System. This move occurs amid an escalating trade war and deteriorating relations with Canada involving tariffs. Trump stated that Canada has been ripping off the U.S. on trade. While the change applies within the United States, Trump cannot force Canada to adopt this naming convention.
