yep in europe they put it in parenthesis because the rest of the world needs to understand wtf that nutter is rambling on about when he spouts about the gulf of america..

The US can call it whatever they want. Call it Trump-Epstein Lake for all I care. Everyone else in the world will still call it Lake Ontario.... and the Gulf of Mexico. Trump can't force other nations to do his bidding.

My fellow Canadians and I have been discussing it, and we've decided we'd like you to please go ahead and change Lake Ontario's name... to this:

You win, Donald Trump. Because of your tariffs, we've decided to rename Lake Ontario in your honour. 💋 🇨🇦 🐴 #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

I found your app and became a paid subscriber the same day I discovered you were the ONLY company that calmly insisted on reality and refused to bend the knee to Orange Nero over the Gulf of “America” insanity in January 2025. And you are holding the line. Truth and integrity matter! Thank you 🙌🗺️

Thank you MapQuest - BTW I am going back to PRINTING MY maps and am Lead bricking my cell- no effing way do I want to be tracked!! You were how I went on adventures b4 Google and you are how I will continue to visit amazing places! Please don’t give our searches etc to the government!

DuckDuckGo maps has both, but Gulf of America in parentheses, which is a lesser of evils for historical accuracy purposes at least - until it can be erased from the record entirely and Trumps foibles cast as a footnote on the scrapheap of history

I feel like this is still caving a little bit. like, everyone should have said "Executive orders are not laws, so we're not gonna do that." I also feel like it is going to take years to undo the nonsense that the toddler with a sharpie went around writing his name on all the walls with. shameful.

Only for 🇺🇸, the rest of the world gets the proper name. We just get your name in brackets so we can understand 🇺🇸 local dialect. It’s funny how small the 🇺🇸 world gets when you change everything to make you feel big. Trump is so childish, a kid, getting the dymo tape out & labelling stuff…

Their excuse is that they use a government server to download all the place names. That's true. But it would have taken them a few minutes to code an exception for one freakin' body of water. They just didn't because they're cowards. They didn't want to piss off Trump.

I suspect they won't. Mapquest has shamed them, and now with TFG weakened politically, and the election a few months out, Google won't change GoM back, but won't change the name of the lake...my two cents...oh, wait, no more pennies: My five cents...

I had a coffee in all donutshops of Toronto with a big dutchy, the best donut you can get in Toronto. No reasons but raisins to call it Lake Big Dutchy in stead of Lake Bullshit.
