Canadian politician Jamil Jivani, a long-time close friend of JD Vance, has claimed that the vice president is barred from entering Canada.
According to Jivani, Vance is not welcome in Canada because of President Donald Trump’s “rhetoric” and “policy.”
So many Democrats and others are so ridden with Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) that it often transfers on to other members of Trump’s administration, including Vice President JD Vance.
According to the Daily Mail, Jivani insists that Vance isn’t welcome in Canada until Trump changes his rhetoric about the country becoming America’s 51st state.
Jivani once referred to Vance as “brother,” indicating a strong friendship.
However, that has apparently gone out the window in the wake of Trump’s repeated insistence that Canada would be better off joining the United States.
Jivani, a conservative member of the nation’s parliament, recently won his reelection bid.
His victory was especially notable given that the most recent election in Canada saw liberals storm the proverbial gates.
The Canadian politician most recently had dinner with Vance in December.
He even attended the inauguration in Washington, D.C.
Now, it appears his tune has changed.
“They need to probably reconsider some of their rhetoric and their policy before coming to Canada,” Jivani said.
The Daily Mail noted:
“The pair were friends long before they got into politics, having attended Yale Law School together, with Jivani joking that they’d been in a fantasy football league together the past 15 years.
“Jivani, who represents a district populated by thousands of auto workers, admits that there has been a distance between himself in the vice president.”
Jivani wasn’t totally hateful when describing why he and the VP have grown apart, saying their busy schedules cause most of the distance between them.
“He’s busy, I’m busy. It’s just the nature of the work that we do.
“Certainly, the way they’ve talked about Canada has been a problem for me personally.
“I’m a proud Canadian,” Jivani said.
“I’m focused on my community, and we’ll see what happens next.”
Jivani, during his reelection campaign, battled opposing candidates’ ads that linked him to Vance.
The ads pushed the idea that the two were close friends, which is apparently a turn-off for most Canadian voters.
“They created commercials about me and JD being friends,” Jivani said.
“They doctored pictures of us and dropped them in mailboxes in my riding.”
He added, “The misrepresentation of who I am, what I believe in, the misrepresentation of my commitment to this country, that stuff, was very, very frustrating.”
That could explain why he’s distancing himself from Vance and attempting to forbid him from entering the country.
