Hello everybody. I'm John Fawc with this Great America Show Midday Update for Wednesday, April 2nd. Happy Wednesday, folks.

Well, today is Liberation Day in America says President Trump. Reciprocal tariffs went to affect today on many nations across the world who have tariffs on America.

It took just hours for some to fold. Israel announcing this morning just shortly after

that they would be taking all tariffs off American goods. Mexico also announcing they will not

retaliate against America and Donald Trump for those tariffs being put on place. And Ontario

premier Doug Ford, that's the fella who just last week said he wants to inflict as much pain on the American people as possible because of the tariffs that we're putting on Canada as a result of what they've done to us.

Well, he's got a much, much different tune today, much different than last week.

Take a listen to Ontario's Premier, Doug Ford, this morning on CNBC. Let's sit down and discuss this because it's just

going to hurt American jobs. I can't stress it enough. And, you know, again, he believes he's supporting Americans.

He said he was going to create jobs, create wealth, reduce inflation.

It's worked the total opposite.

But do you think it's fair that you have tariffs on a whole number of products?

That's right.

And we'd be willing to take those off tomorrow if he took all the tariffs off.

We are not the problem.

Andrew, do you know the problem is China's the problem?

And he's taking a blind eye to China as they continue to build their critical mineral

mass.

We have all the critical minerals that are great neighbors need. We have the energy that are great neighbors need.

I just want to go back for a moment.

If in fact you're prepared to take your tariffs off,

why wouldn't you have that negotiation and that conversation now
