  "account": "U.S. President Donald Trump claimed during a rally in Port Huron, Michigan that the trade war with Canada will conclude \"pretty soon.\" The U.S. leader accused Canada of \"ripping off\" the country through unfair trade practices, and said the dispute would be resolved rapidly. Canada has been willing to concede, Trump suggested. The ongoing disagreement between the two nations erupted in August when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau refused to negotiate under the Carney government's demands. In response, both countries initiated retaliatory tariffs on each other's goods. Trump reiterated on Sunday that Canada had shown \"willingness to give us anything at this moment.\" The trade dispute has become a significant issue in the upcoming November midterm elections. Trump announced on Friday that he would reduce some of the 50% tariffs at the end of the month, while simultaneously imposing new tariffs on additional products such as Canadian garbage and sewage, at the request of Republican Senator Susan Collins from Maine. This announcement was made as the midterms are less than two weeks away.",
