North America, South America, Central America, Latin America and the Americas. What is a continent, region or a landmass?
When the media uses a term like North America, Mexicans, Cubans and Salvadorans are not included as North Americans. The media has never designated Fidel Castro as a North American. North America as a continent seems to engulf Central America.
The Vancouver Sun newspaper, in the business section, under the heading Overseas, lists Amsterdam, London, Sydney, Milan, and Mexico. All correct except Mexico, a place we can drive to from Canada.
The gulf between the nations of North America and Latin America is wide, but there is no ocean, bay or body of water intervening. Mexico feels overseas to Canadians, so it is expressed thus.
