Google has sparked controversy by labeling Lake Ontario as 'Lake America' for its US users. The change was made after President Donald Trump signed an executive order to rename the lake, which straddles the Canadian and US border.

The decision has been met with widespread criticism on social media, with many calling it a 'misinformation' campaign by Google. Some users have also accused the company of 'bowing down' to Trump's administration.

Canadian politicians have also weighed in on the issue, with Ontario Premier Doug Ford and provincial parliament member Stephen Crawford expressing their opposition to the name change. The province is taking steps to ensure that government websites display the correct name, Lake Ontario.
