Mario Nawfal(@MarioNawfal):🇺🇸🇨🇦 First the Gulf, now a whole lake. Trump's map-renaming streak continues. Apple Maps has followed Google in relabeling Lake Ontario as "Lake America," and Trump marked the moment by announcing the whole thing is now "complete, ratified, and binding." Small detail: the lake is still half in Canada, and Canadians still see Lake Ontario on their screens. Binding is doing a lot of work there. The real winner might be MapQuest, of all things. It flat-out refused to change the name and shot straight to number 1 in the app store. A dead app came back to life by saying no. Somebody's got to tell the Canadian fish they're American now.
