Joe Rogan’s Take on Donald Trump’s Latest Idea Is Raising Eyebrows
Mark Carney and Doug Ford said the lake keeps its Indigenous name as Trump cites more than $60 billion in annual U.S. losses with Canada.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order renaming Lake Ontario to 'Lake America,' asserting U.S. authority over the shared Great Lakes body of water.
- Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Ontario Premier Doug Ford rejected the change, noting the name 'Ontario' originates from the Wyandot people and predates the United States by more than 400 years.
- Criticizing the rebranding on his Tuesday podcast, Podcaster Joe Rogan argued the move serves as a distraction from the ongoing war in Iran, telling listeners: 'Its to distract you from the fact we are in a war we cant win with Iran.'
- While Google Maps has adopted the new name, a Reuters/Ipsos poll shows 63% of Americans oppose the renaming, which follows a breakdown in U.S.-Canada trade negotiations.
- Congress holds authority over geographic designations and could theoretically restore the original name, though analysts warn the controversy may damage Republican prospects ahead of the midterms.
