Why does the US consider everything south of it its “backyard” and not Canada? I promise you the average American doesn’t think of some white German descendent when you talk about South America unless it’s Argentina

the monroe doctrine definitely included canada after it stopped being a UK colony. and what does americans thinking latin america being full of germans have to do with anything?

also if you're looking for "Germanic" looking people in Argentina you'll be pretty disappointed. They're basically 30% Native (Mapuche, Toba, and Guarani) and 70% Southern European (Spanish Italian)
