Google Maps has updated its application to reflect a recent order by President Donald Trump that changed the name of Lake Ontario. For US users, the lake is now displayed as 'Lake America' on Google Maps.

The update comes amid an escalating trade war between the US and Canada, with both countries imposing billions of dollars in added tariffs on each other's goods.

This move echoes a similar action taken by Google in 2025 when Trump issued an order to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the 'Gulf of America'.
