Here’s what Politico reported:
JD Vance’s close friend from Canada is taking back his open invite for the vice president to visit.
Conservative MP Jamil Jivani, who became close with Vance at Yale Law School 15 years ago, said it would not be “constructive” for the VP to visit his Toronto-area district right now given the Trump administration’s provocations toward Canada.
“Right now we have strong political disagreements, and that’s kind of how it is,” he said.
It’s a reversal from how he felt in December, when he accepted an invitation to dine with Vance in Arlington, Virginia. Jivani was also in Washington for Inauguration Day.
“They need to probably reconsider some of their rhetoric and their policy before coming to Canada,” Jivani said to POLITICO. “Our country should deserve more respect before being able to welcome them.”
Jivani represents a suburban and rural area that employs thousands of auto workers at a GM plant that makes the Chevrolet Silverado. People in the community are anxious about tariffs on the auto sector and President Donald Trump’s annexation threats, Jivani said.

Per The National Post:
Conservative MP Jamil Jivani, who is a longtime friend of the U.S. vice president, says JD Vance shouldn’t visit Canada.
The revelation came when Jivani spoke to Politico in an article published on Thursday. “Right now we have strong political disagreements, and that’s kind of how it is,” he told the publication. He said it would not be “constructive” for Vance to visit, specifically his Bowmanville—Oshawa North riding in Ontario, given the political climate between the two countries.
The U.S. and Canada have been in a months-long trade war, since President Donald Trump implemented tariffs on Canadian goods. Tensions remain high due to Trump’s ongoing rhetoric about his northern neighbours, calling for Canada to become the 51st state.
“They need to probably reconsider some of their rhetoric and their policy before coming to Canada. Our country should deserve more respect before being able to welcome them,” said Jivani, who met Vance at law school at Yale University 15 years ago.
