  "account": "Toronto - Premier Doug Ford of Ontario, Canada, expressed euphoria upon hearing the landslide victory of US Democrats in the midterm elections. Speaking at a press conference on Wednesday, Ford, known for his populist style, remarked, \"I've been biking on the streets,\" upon learning of the election results. He recounted how he jumped up and down as the outcomes were announced.\n\nIn recent months, Ford, who once admired US President Donald Trump, has become one of Canada's most vocal and determined critics of the President. Asked by journalists how he views Trump's poor performance in the midterms, Ford declared, \"I'm overjoyed. I can't stand the guy.\"\n\nOther prominent Canadian politicians responded more cautiously to the southern neighbor's electoral outcome, primarily to avoid jeopardizing ongoing trade talks with Washington. Many made it clear that they now hoped for a relaxation in the trade war initiated by Donald Trump. Can the Democrats' victories provide Canada and other countries with more negotiating power, or is this wishful thinking?",
  "summary": "Die Beziehung Kanadas zu den USA gilt als Gradmesser für die internationalen Folgen von Trumps Politik. Die Reaktionen auf die Midterms schwanken dort zwischen Euphorie und Pragmatismus.",
