That’s not how diplomatic immunity works, it’s for crimes committed inside the host country, the host country can refuse entry to anyone, even diplomats or presidents. Just because you’re the president of the US it doesn’t mean you can just show up in any country.
Just like Bush for his DUI, Trump will need to have the paperwork necessary to be granted access to Canada as a person with a criminal record.
And your comment is still wrong. Diplomatic immunity has nothing to do with the process any foreigner with a criminal record can go through to visit Canada. It’s paperwork and it’s the same thing Bush was doing to visit Canada while he was president 20 years ago.
Again, diplomatic immunity is about things the person does while inside the host country if they’re acting as a representative of their country and it only protects certain people, not anyone sent by a country and in Canada it doesn’t even apply to presidents/premiers/kings of foreign nations.
That’s not how diplomatic immunity works. A nation is welcome to ban entry to any foreign national.
Diplomatic immunity is for crimes commited within a foreign nation. It’s also worth notting that the immunity can be revoked as well by the nation that said foreign national is from, there by allowing them to be arrested and tried under the local justice system.
The host country can recognize it and arrest them… or not. Technically Mongolia should have arrested Putin when he visited not too long ago, they didn’t because that would have been political suicide.
The international court is a completely different beast from a national court.

I like this visual. It’s like a force field.
More like a fart cloud

How does it work when the diplomat / head of state has been sentenced by an international court for war crimes or crimes against humanity?
