Trump wants Apple to follow Google Maps and rename Lake Ontario ‘Lake America’
Donald Trump has reportedly asked Apple to rename Lake Ontario ‘Lake America’ on its maps, while Google Maps has already adopted the name for users in the US.
US President Donald Trump has directly approached Apple in his bid to rename Lake Ontario as "Lake America", with Interior Secretary Doug Burgum suggesting the tech giant could soon implement the change on its mapping service. This development follows Trump's formal directive to rename the lake in US federal databases, adding to the growing tensions between Washington and Ottawa.
In an interview on Fox Business Mornings with Maria, Burgum stated that "We may be seeing that change coming up soon to Lake America." Apple has not yet commented on the matter.
