I want to know why I started seeing television commercial in German and Spanish in the USA?

Now I really don't care what language. I understand German, Spanish as second language. But why now, television been in the USA since the late 1940s and became and staple in everyone home in late 1950s

Now Canada has a officially a duel language of English and French. So I can see them having television commercials in English and French

I recently signed up for Dish network and everything was in Spanish, I don't have working knowledge of Spanish and called them to complain that when I signed up I "Spoke" to the salesperson in English and chose the English button to speak to an English-speaking salesperson. So, why the heck was I receiving everything in Spanish including my bill. They switched my account over to English. Honestly it rather pissed me off.
