That comes up with the pictures etc, and that has Lake America in backets. Then I zoomed in to it and it was just Lake America. However that was yesterday, today it is back to Ontario. The day before I also checked it out and it was only Ontario, without even the brackets. So it was only for a day for some reason. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 1 point 2 months ago Sounds like your country may be becoming the US soon then.
