在美国总统唐纳德·特朗普签署将安大略湖更名为“美洲湖”的行政命令后,其网页版苹果地图已将安大略湖的名称改为“Lake America”(美洲湖)。

苹果于周二做出这一调整,此前 Alphabet 公司(GOOGL.O),将在新标签页打开
已于周六晚将其谷歌地图上针对美国用户的该湖泊名称进行了更改。

苹果证实,在美国地理名称信息系统更新该水体名称后,美国用户将看到“美洲湖”这一名称。

加拿大用户将继续看到“安大略湖”,而全球其他地区的用户将同时看到两个名称,这与特朗普将墨西哥湾更名为“美洲湾”后苹果所采用的做法一致。

此次更名事件凸显出,随着特朗普政府施压科技公司遵守其遭到盟友及国际机构反对的行政命令,美国科技公司正被卷入地缘政治争端。

特朗普针对安大略湖——北美五大湖之一——的行政命令仅适用于美国联邦层面对该湖泊的称呼,并未约束加拿大、国际机构或其他组织对该湖的命名。

路透社/益普索的最新民调显示,大多数美国人反对特朗普上周提出的对进口加拿大商品加征关税的举措,以及他将安大略湖更名为“美洲湖”的行政命令。

特朗普签署行政命令数小时内,加拿大总理马克·卡尼和美国纽约州州长、民主党人凯西·霍楚尔均表示不会更改这一已有400多年历史的名称。纽约州在美国一侧与该湖接壤。

安大略湖约52%的表面积位于加拿大境内,其余部分位于纽约州。

自2025年初以来,特朗普多次嘲讽加拿大,称其应成为美国的第51个州,加拿大领导人对此均斥之为荒谬之举。

特朗普还在2025年1月下令将墨西哥湾更名为“美洲湾”,谷歌和苹果随后均调整了其地图应用,以在美国用户端反映这一名称变更。

Apple Maps changes name of Lake Ontario to ‘Lake America’

U.S. President Donald Trump speaks next to a map with “Lake America” written on it as he attends an event to sign an executive order renaming Lake Ontario as Lake America at the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, D.C., U.S., August 27, 2026.

WASHINGTON, Sept 1 (Reuters) – Apple

(AAPL.O), opens new tab
changed the name of Lake Ontario to “Lake America” on the web ​version of its Apple Maps following U.S. President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming ‌the lake.

The move by Apple on Tuesday followed a decision by Alphabet

late on Saturday to change the name of the lake on its Google Maps for U.S. users.

Apple confirmed that U.S. users ​will see “Lake America” following a change to the body of water’s name in ​the U.S. Geographic Names Information System.

Users in Canada will continue to ⁠see Lake Ontario, and users in the rest of the world will see both ​names, following the same approach Apple used after Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico as ​the Gulf of America.

The name changes illustrate how U.S. tech companies are being pulled into geopolitical disputes as the Trump administration pressures them to comply with executive orders that allies and international bodies ​have rejected.

Trump’s executive order on Lake Ontario, one of the five Great Lakes of ​North America, applies to U.S. federal usage for the lake, and does not govern what Canada, international ‌bodies ⁠or other organizations call the lake.

A majority of Americans oppose Trump’s moves last week to raise taxes on imported Canadian goods and his order to rename Lake Ontario as “Lake America,” a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

Within hours of Trump’s executive order, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney ​and New York Governor ​Kathy Hochul, a ⁠Democrat, said they would not be changing the name, which is more than 400 years old. New York borders the lake on ​the U.S. side.

About 52% of the surface area of Lake ​Ontario is ⁠in Canada, with the remainder in New York.

Since early 2025, Trump has repeatedly taunted Canada about becoming the 51st U.S. state, an idea Canadian leaders have dismissed as ridiculous.

Trump also ordered ⁠the ​Gulf of Mexico renamed to Gulf of America in ​January 2025 and both Google and Apple revised their map apps to reflect the change for U.S. users.
