Google Maps Shows 'Lake America' Instead of 'Lake Ontario' for US Users

Google Maps has started showing 'Lake America' in place of 'Lake Ontario' for users in the US, following an executive order by President Donald Trump. The change was announced on August 30, 2026, and is part of a broader effort to reflect the president's vision for the country.

The move has sparked debate about the implications of renaming a major geographical feature, with some arguing it could have far-reaching consequences for international relations and trade agreements.
