Migration Matters

What does ‘the We’ mean in countries of immigration?

What does our language choice have to do with feeling like part of ‘the we’ in countries of immigration? And does it matter if we don’t all talk about immigration in the same way? We took a closer look at the cases of Germany and Canada and how they talk about people who come from somewhere else.

Look out for….

  • How do we talk about people who come from other countries but live in our country, and does the way we talk about them change  if and when they become citizens?
  • Definitions in Germany and Canada
  • Paths to citizenship
  • Differences from country to country
  • What does “We” mean?
