Ah-Nold says "Turn off Spanish TV"

I'm not sure what kind of an opinion I have on the subject. Being from a country with two official languages (English and French here in Canada), I guess I just don't see the big deal regarding why people should be forced to speak English and only English. I understand that English is the official language of the USA, and know that it is important for people to make an attempt to learn it so that they can make life easier for them...but I don't think that they should necessarily turn their backs on their own language either.

Personally, I'm always in awe of people who can speak three or more languages!

But, that's just me.
