Yeah, it may be their official second language, but if you go anywhere in the   
states and you only speak Spanish, you don't have access to all their services  
like you do here in Canada.  Say, if you are entering the country, and you try  
to talk to one of the border guards, well, too bad, you have to wait till they  
can find someone you can talk to you, where in Canada, any employee of the      
government who has contact with the public must be able to speak fluently in    
both French and English, or if someone only speaks French, they have to be      
able to get someone RIGHT AWAY who can talk to the person.  Spanish is NOT an   
OFFICIAL language in the US.                                                    
                                                                                
                                            Yours Truly
