    If you make that argument to Midwesterners at best you will be noggied, have your underwear pulled over your head, and all your linch money taken.

    At worst the Cost Guard will come give you a stern talking to since international treaties have determined that Lake Michigan is an entirely US owned body of water that Candad has to keep their dirty paws off of.

      Indeed, hence why I specified hydrologically. Geographically and politically, they are two separate lakes.

      Canada couldn’t handle Lake Michigan anyway, it’s too warm for them

        Wait? Are there really warm lakes? I live way North of the great lakes and have never experienced such sorcery that wasn’t attached to a spring.

          Oh yeah, big time. I don’t think any of the great lakes would actually fit that description though. The problem with warm lakes is that there’s usually a lot more biological activity going on, so the water tends to be much less clear.

          I’d prefer to swim in a cold, clear lake instead of a warm, murky lake any day of the week. That’s how you get infected by one of these bad boys.

          I actually have been in Lake Erie. The great lakes are not solely the domain of the Midwest and Canada. But you do have a point
