Still Ontario from Canada
Not for me. Using a Canadian VPN.
I'm in Canada and it's Lac Ontario for me. (In French)
Is your language en-us or en-ca would be my first question. There's multiple potential ways they could be determining what the correct name is for you?

Lake Ontario is still Lake Ontario.
Google has shown local variations to borders etc. for... decades? They do not define them, after all.
In Japan, still Ontario from here too.
