Minister of Industry of Canada Mélanie Joly Says, ‘We’ll Always Call It Lake Ontario’ in Response to Trump’s Threat to Rename It ‘Lake America’

EXCERPT:

JOLY: “We'll always call it Lake Ontario, period. (Applause) We're proud of our Great Lakes. We've navigated the, you know, St. Lawrence River, the Great Lakes, for thousands of years and it was part of a foundation of our country. And we'll just stand up for what we have. And meanwhile, I really think that while all these shenanigans are happening, we'll just be smart and we'll be strategic and we'll fight back.” (Applause)
