EDMONTON — Stephen Winters says watching the U.S. election campaign from Canada as a dual citizen is like a parent watching their kid play sports.

“When you’re on the sideline it makes you more nervous than when you’re in it,” Winters said in an interview from Calgary.

“My friends and family at home are like, ‘Don’t worry that much’ because they’re there and they know things are going OK. When you’re outside, it can look worse than it is.”
