Well, I'm all for border control, in fact, closing them entirely from the South would be a good thing! Can I tell you how sick I am of hearing Spanish??!! 'Press 1 for English'...WTF?
I don't know of any other country in the world with that message when you're calling any business!
Uh... again, up here in Canada it's always "press one for English, appuyez sur le deux pour francais". Also - Switzerland, Belgium, Brazil, China, etc, etc are multilingual.
You are one lovely bigot, you know that.
I'm not sure how what I said has now been taken as bigotry.
I recently came back to the States after having lived for over a decade in a foreign country. I've seen a lot of changes here, heard a lot of complaining, and I know how things are 'over there'. That does not make me a bigot. At least in America we have the right to say what we think, unlike other places, like Germany. Of course, France can speak up, though. :roll:
And in most places in Europe, there are signs in English and other languages, but on the phone, you do not have the option to press '1' for it. Most other countries speak English, so I guess they don't feel the need to have that as an option on the phone. Having only Spanish is unfair to the other foreign language speaking minorities we have here. Then we should say 'For Korean press 3'??? 'Arabic press 4'?? And so on???
From what you've said, Canada sounds like a Utopic place.
