    Don't worry, as others have noted, in the civilized world c.q. actual democracies, it's still displayed as "Lake Ontario".

    The funny bit is that it's actually displayed as

    " Lake
    -----------------
    Ontario "

    where the dashed line is the border. So the "Ontario" bit is actually on
    the *US* side. Karma!
