"Surrounded by large maps of the Great Lakes, Trump said the name change was “effective immediately,” and that his staff had “filed all the necessary papers, documents, everything else.” A White House aide claimed the lake “has most of its volume in the United States” and that the “deepest parts” are in US territory."
There are several other Trump Administration officials that are trashing the Canadian military and anything else to do with Canada. It is childish behaviour and only fuels anti-Americanism here. US seems to forget that Canada has been a huge purchaser of US military goods: that is likely to change going forward despite Canada ramping up its military spending. Blame this on US rhetoric.
