  "summary": "US President Donald Trump's executive order has led to Google Maps changing the name of Lake Ontario to \"Lake America\" for users in the United States. According to Euronews, Canadians still see the traditional name. The move has sparked a reaction from Canada, with a giant \"Lake Ontario\" sign erected.\n\nThe name change is part of an escalation in the US-Canada trade war. The Guardian US reports that Democrat Debbie Dingell plans to introduce a bill called the \"Hands Off Our Great Lakes Act\" in response to Trump's order.\n\nThe name change has also sparked a spat between Trump and the media. Trump has criticized NBC's Kristen Welker, host of Meet the Press, for describing the success record of candidates he had endorsed as \"mixed\".",
