Not sure that what your point is here. As a Canadian, I am also a North American, but in the context of this thread, it is irrelevant; the topic at hand is the US, not residents of a continent. Our Canadian issues around immigration have little in common with the issues raised here.
Just slightly OT, but in the UK, people often referred to me and my family as American. No offense taken at all, but I am not American. I am North American. The best response, delivered with a smile, was usually "that's OK, all you Europeans sound the same to me as well" It was particularly effective if the person making the first comment was Scots.....
