Trump Avenue in Ottawa’s leafy west end, a neighborhood with New York City -themed street names, was chosen when U.S. President Donald Trump was known primarily as a Manhattan real estate developer. Now, amid the worsening trade war and escalating verbal threats, the city council is moving to rename it. Longtime resident Diane Hosker told Reuters, 'He [Trump] is a fool. I don't like the way he treats us, the way that he talks about us. It's embarrassing to tell people you live on a street named after him. It's just enough.'
