Approximately 41% of Canadians are first or second generation immigrants.

You should get out of your hate filled echo chamber and check your facts, EVERY ONE of those countries embraces its diversity.
Canada is a very unpopulated country, Canada has no where close to what the USA has in immigrants. The USA has more illegal aliens than Canada has total people.

The USA has BY FAR more immigrants than any other nation on earth -- and an extremely fast population increase rate. We're importing people far faster than jobs can be created for them.

WRONG! I live in the SW and you would never use the racist slur word "anglo" to describe anyone.

What's an "anglo" supposed to look like? You cannot really use a word like "anglo" which means some ancient tribe in Europe to distinguish a German from a Frenchman.

You people don't like the term "wet" or other racist terms yet you're very willing to use racist terminology yourselves. All "whites" are not "anglo-saxon" and it's extremely ignorant to think anyone of European ancestry is from the anglo-saxon group only. That's as stupid as calling all Asians Chinamen. Or Chinos as you might say.

Don't let the name fool you, New Mexico is just as much a state of the USA as is Utah.

Immigration in limited numbers can be fine -- very good even, but why are people refusing to adapt in any way to the way of life in this country? If they are so adamant about holding onto their own country's ways, they need to think about staying in that country.

Maybe staying there and actually working to make their country better?

Oh -- but the big easy money and government handouts are in the USA.

Yes! By the way for my Argentinian friends all the Peruvians, Bolivians, Ecuadorians, Mexicans are simply Indians. Argentinians don't even want to be called Latinos just not to be associated with that colorful crowd from Central and South America... I don't blame them.

Yeah. They come in here waving their Mexican flags.... Stupid. If they want to be proud Mexicans, they should go back to Mexico and make it a better place. We don't want our street to resemble and feel like Tijuana! Don't wave your stinking flags here! This is United States of America and not some Latin American crime ridden hell hole.

"Anglo" is the term Spanish speaking immigrants use to describe Americans or "people who speak American English with no distinguishable accent regardless of their ethnic background".
In other words "Anglo" is a slang for Americans concocted by stinking, illiterate immigrants. If anything they should be grateful we let them come here instead of letting them rot in their own countries,

They call them "mojados" in Mexico. Mojados even call themselves mojados, and it the same thing.
I don't see many say much when it's a "white" anything!!

I think most don't consider those names above as offensive to some............white's shouldn't be offend or included in anything considered racial slur.

"anglo" ain't that bad any more. But, calling an anglo "Hispanic"; even if that person looks the part, IS becoming a slur.

Actually I hear "gringo" and "gringa" more than "Anglo" around here.
