@LadyBronte and the americans are welcome to call it Lake America - but nobody else in the world will do that (although trump's beloved dictator in North Korea might issue a trump-style executive order)
@newjaninev2 For people are capable of logical and factual thought, intentional misinformation and selective or partial information designed to mislead and inflame, is wearing thin, too. I posted a fact, not an opinion for or against, and people lose their shit.
@LadyBronte The name Ontario is derived from the Wendat (Huron) word Ontarí'io, which is often translated as "great lake".[10] In Colonial times, the lake was also called Cataraqui, a French spelling of the Mohawk Katarokwi.[11][12] The name Ontarí'io is most often translated from Wyandot as "beautiful lake",[10][13] and other translations exist.[14]. The naming of the province of Ontario came after.
@Zonuss you haven’t figured out by now that some people just can’t ? Like no control over thoughts / emotions / feelings. Inserting his name into convos where he doesn’t belong . I couldn’t imagine living like that.
