BREAKING NEWS: Province of Quebec renames Mar-a-Lago to Merde-a-Lago
Pedo-a-Loto
So if the US can just randomly rename stuff that doesn't belong to them, Canada can too. I want to see them rename the entire United States to "Trump is a Pedophile". That'll look great on Google maps!
I'd also like to unilaterally rename Ontario, California (ie: Ontario, CA) for creating unnecessary confusion.
Maybe they'll choose to rename it themselves? Like, maybe Manitoba, CA? That's got a nice ring to it!
This is what I came here to say or updoot if already said. Pleeeeeease make it happen. I would absolutely love if the rest of the world just started renaming shit in and around the US.
The US has a long history of changing the names of things because βfuck youβ, Mt McKinley is actually Denali for instance.

Canada - π₯±. We and everyone else in the world still call it Lake Ontario. π

Im ok calling the american half 'Lake Epstein" but the canadian half is Lake Ontario.
Reasonable.
He seems to think Canadians will care what they choose to call that body of water.

Oh no, a rapist is calling to rename a lake in a country where 1/2 the population can barely read.
I am quite happy that Canada is diverting away from this dumpster fire of a country.
Trump cannot force Canada to follow his preferred naming convention, however.
Trump cannot force anyone outside of the USA to respect his childish renaming bullshit.
He can't even force Americans to play his stupid game, though I'm sure a bunch if them will happily play along.
The child rapist pressy throwing yet another tantrum... maybe the latest babysitter can be more diligent with diaper duties?
He can call it what he will, but Canadians still call the Rogers Centre the SkyDome over 20 years later.
They could have just called it the Rogers Skydome, and nobody would have cared. I'm more mad about that than I am with the orange pedo having another tantrum with Lake Ontario.
It's all just an attempted distraction from the Republicans' ruinous economic and social policy. And hoping we forget about the Epstein files. Release the full Epstein files, with only victims images and PIA redacted.
But Rogers was just being senselessly stupid. They weren't trying to cover up being pedophiles, afaik, so why did they do it?
Realest fucking thing in this thread honestly
Canada should rename it to Epstein Files Lake
This is like trying to make βfetchβ happen. No one is going to call it that.
I haven't met a single person who is even willing to acknowledge the name change of the SkyDome. There's no way anyone pays any sort of attention to him trying to rename a lake.
They renamed the SkyDome?
It's technically the Rogers Center now.
Reposting because i said it yesterday:
Lake Epstein, it even has islands.
No Lake Michigan is Lake Epstein. Don't need to rename Canada's great lakes and Lake Michigan is all in their borders. Also that is the one the FBI complaint alleges Trump witnessed the newborn of a 13 yr old Epstein victim murdered and dumped. If people want to get under his deathly orange skin run with that one.
That would be a great jab at his ego. light him on fire lol
Open Street Map will likely ignore Donnie's foolishness like they did with the Gulf of Mexico.
Some fucktard already tried submitting it.

Looks like it was reverted.
I'm a little surprised anyone using OSM would also be a Trump disciple.
In response, the City of Toronto can propose renaming the Green Lane Landfill to the Donald J. Trump Memorial Landfill, or Donald Dump for short.
It would make me proud to be a canadian if the person that takes him out is one of ours. Wipe out the whole lot of them.
Chances are the honour will befall an American McDonald's grill cook.
Please everyone, just ignore this shit. Better yet laugh at them and call them morons then ignore it.
I like the AP news article that points out Trump doesn't have the power or authority to do this and it is an entirely meaningless change except to cause US schools to update books four times.
We should rename the entire US "South Canada" or "Lesser Canada".
Oh I like Lesser Canada
Oh no! Anywaysβ¦..
How about them Epstein files?
I just signed a piece of toilet paper directing my ass to rename Donald Trump to "Donald Duck".
Jfc whats the acronym for remembering the lake names supposed to be now? HAMES?
... oh, wait, no. Its SHAME. Maybe this ain't such a bad shift in that light.
Lake Superior is named that because Obama was a better president.
But don't let trump or the magat cult know.
I worry this might be more than just him throwing a tantrum.
When the water wars start, they'll start going, Canada is stealing water from LAKE AMERICA, OUR LAKE, OUR WATER!
setting the stage for a future war
You worry too much. Trump isn't capable of planning. Just sit back, crack a beer, and have a laugh at his impotent rage.
Look, as an American in pretty disappointed in my president. I don't care much about renaming the lake, but I do care he came up with such a dogshit name. I propose the name "Lake Democracy Manifest"
"Lake Succulent Chinese Meal"
I was going to post something witty but the neighbors dog just took a trump on my lawn and I gotta go clean it. Every day some dog or another is taking a trump on my lawn. trumps are disgusting and smelly!
Boy it would be nice if trump walked off a short bridge
