Canada may be considering renaming that lake
"the strait of our moose".
Sorry.

I was thinking that Canada might consider renaming Lake Minnewanka[*] to
Lake Minnetrump.

Lake Trumpawanka would work even better for those unfamiliar with the
lakes of Alberta.

Even Doug Ford (Premier of Ontario) who called Trump a "bully," a
"dictator," and a "loser" and also invited him to "kiss my ass" is now
trying to strike a more emollient tone.

Trump's ego can't tolerate anyone returning his own insults, and he
would throw all the toys out of his (very large) pram, no matter what
harm he does to everyone in the process.

Hey! Why should Canadians rename Canadian lakes? Right now, the most
popular mapping app in Canada is MapQuest because, AIUI, it has the
facility to rename features and Canadians seem to be busily renaming
features in the USA

I would recommend "Loon Lake" be attached to some body of water close to Trump.

There probably is one nearby already - wherever in the USA he and
Natalie happen to be. There are several "Loon Lake" designations
across the USA on account of the Great Northern Diver birds that
inhabit them.

My reluctance to name any more Loon Lakes in the USA is based on my
feeling that America would be helped on its path towards absorbing
Canada as the 51st State by stealth. The Common Loon - as they insist
on calling the Great Northern Diver over there - is Canada's national
bird. It appears on the Canadian $1 coin which is affectionately known
as the Loonie.
