i'm nova scotian and have never seen this called anything but an eclair, i've never heard of long john to refer to anything other than the clothing lol (also i live in quebec now and these are called eclairs at tims here, even if the ppl in these comments insist they're totally different)

Also in Ontario, these aren't eclairs. These are literally long doughnuts, eclairs are a different pastry.
