No one ever demands all languages should use the English word for an English speaking country. It's really stupid.
Like if your country was "Everyonehereisacunt" and that country wanted a different name, fine but if it's just sounds like surely people have the right to use their own language.
Nice choice, using the Canadian name for Australia in your example.
