The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.

Alberta is in a state of emergency & the risk of #ABWildfire is extreme. Fire bans & off-highway vehicle restrictions are in place across most of the province.
Don’t start a wildfire. Follow rules in your area for fires, fireworks & OHVs, including trucks: albertafirebans.ca
ALT A campfire smoulders. The text says Fire bans and OHV restrictions in place. AlbertaFireBans.ca. 1-866-FYI-FIRE. There are two round icons of a campfire and an off-highway vehicle with strikes through them. The Government of Alberta logo is in the bottom right corner.

Last week’s court decision affirmed the view that seabed mining is too dangerous, too risky and too harmful to the environment.
Now the precedent is set, Jacinda Ardern should ban it.
