I have no problems with the latest immigrates to this area except I wish all people (even those of European ancestory) would stop fleeing problems and start resolving problems. I can careless if Cascadia speaks English, Hindi, Chinese, Spanish, Chinook Jargon, a merger of all langauges or some alien communative farts. I can also careless what the genetic make up what Cascadians are as long as they are not all inbred like we stereotype in some parts of the US. Race is a social construct and the real issue is racism, ethnic chauvinism and gender bias and stereotypes. To me everyone should have universal health care regardless of national origin. Those employers hiring illegal workers are the ones who should be penalized by paying for the healthcare and education of the worker and theie families and dependants. If that was done how many jobs would be available for illegal workers? Do you think there would be a steady stream of workers illegally crossing the borders? Do you think the employers would take that chance to be caught and forced to pay such heavy fines? See currently we pretend to punish the uneducated immigrate, but if you make it undesirable or too costly to hire illegally then the issues disappears. And before you say "who will do the jobs of the current migrate worker?" Well the current legal migrate and non-migrate worker would.
