Google Maps has made a change to its labels for Lake Ontario after an executive order from President Donald Trump. The lake, which borders New York state and the Canadian province of Ontario, is now officially recognized as 'Lake America' on Google Maps within the United States.

The change was announced by Google on Saturday, two days after Trump signed the order formalizing the name change.

According to the order, the name change is aimed at 'restoring names that honor American greatness.'

However, not everyone agrees with the decision. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney responded to the news by stating that the name 'Lake Ontario' comes from the Wendat word Ontari'io, which means 'the lake is beautiful, the lake is big.'
