The U.S. president clapped back on social media, referring to the Ontario premier as "Flunky Ford" and the "less charismatic, intelligent," version of his late brother, Rob Ford.
Ewasko said Kinew gave an interview to the New York Post for an article that referred to the premier as “an ex-con rapper turned Canadian politician playing tough guy in the trade war with us mocking President Trump.”
Ewasko said Kinew expensed the $1,514 trip to Vancouver and accused him of campaigning for the B.C. NDP on the Manitoba taxpayers’ dime. He asked him to apologize and pay it back.
REAL LEADER! Prime Minister Mark Carney hits back HARD at Trump's pathetic "Lake America" renaming — says it will be Lake Ontario "then, now and always."
This is going to drive MAGA off a ledge...
"The name of Lake Ontario derives from the Wendat word 'Ontari’io', which means 'the lake is beautiful, the lake is great," Carney wrote on X in French.
"This name dates back more than 400 years, well before the Canadian Confederation and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America," he continued.
"We know that the United States is changing. Their trade relations, their foreign policy, their national monuments, their hydronyms," Carney added. "Canadian women and men also know that things must be called by their name, and this lake is called Lake Ontario – then, now and always."
As usual, Carney struck the perfect balance between firm confidence and restrained class. He also managed to slide in a great little trolling jab with his use of the word "hydronyms" because there's no way in hell Trump knows what it means. It means the names for bodies of water, so Carney is also referring to Trump's pathetic effort to rebrand the Gulf of Mexico into the "Gulf of America."
This entire story is a transparent attempt by Trump to distract from his failed Iran War and our teetering economy. He can't pass any legislation because he's too lazy to design any, so he's taken to scrawling on maps with a Sharpie.
Carney is right that Canadians will just continue to call it Lake Ontario, but so will most Americans. Only the most diehard MAGA cultists are on board with this asinine idea and Trump has no control over our words. When the next Democratic President is sworn in, they can undo this farce with the stroke of a pen.
DEMENTIA DONNIE continues to shine on the world stage yet again!
