I grew up in Leamington, Ontario, which has one of the highest if not the highest proportion of Latin Canadians at about 7.5% as of 2021. Most are first generation migrant workers from Mexico and damn do I ever miss the Mexican food there.
Quebec should be over 80% 🤑
New Mexico is great. Perfect mixture of Old Spanish descendents and new immigrants from across the border.
Yes.
As a 5th Generation Mexican-American from California, I hate how every movie or show about Hispanics in the USA takes place in LA.
Imo they need more „desert Hispanics“ representation. Like stories set in New Mexico or Arizona.
But I am already writing a book based on a Hispanic male character set in the state of New Mexico. Bc that is how bad I want a change in media.
Canada accepts more Immigrants from Asia while the USA is more popular with Latin Americans
how are there so many in Alaska ?
Fun fact: There are proportionally more Spanish speakers in California (29%) than French speakers in Canada (21%).
The same is true of Texas (28% Spanish speaking).
South Asians (Desis) are the Latinos of Canada
Canada didn’t use to be Mexico
Montreal has a neighbourhood called the „Quartier Latin“ which I always found weird because I pretty much never encountered any Spanish-speaking people there.
To be fair, a lot of that was Mexico lmao
I’m from New Mexico and didn’t leave the state until I was around 14. It felt like being in a whole other country. I’d never been in a place where I (Hispanic) was a minority.
Something important to note is that New Mexican Hispanics are different from Hispanic populations in other states, most Hispanics here are nuevomexicanos who didn’t immigrate here; we’re descended from colonial Spanish settlers from the 16th & 17th centuries that intermixed with local indigenous peoples.
I’m in Toronto and although my neighborhood is mostly Portuguese and Italian, there seems to be a lot of Mexicans moving in. The difference is that they’re like two families or a bunch of men renting a house instead of owning it. They could also be from other Spanish speaking countries but the flags you see are Mexican.
Living on the prairies, Canada’s hispanophone population has gone up many times over since I was a kid. I think I met one guy from a Chilean family in high school, and then a woman born in Colombia at university. 25 years later I hear a lot more Spanish in daily life, like maybe once a month or something. “Just” 1.6% is relative to a baseline of “Who?”
So that’s why they call it New Mexico
That’s because they are in Washington on work visas
I mean the states with the heaviest Latino populations almost perfectly map over the historic borders of Mexico, alongside Spanish Florida. Not a surprise from a historical perspective
