Roughly 10-15 years ago it became harder for Russians to immigrate to USA and many turned to Canada, that has introduced Express Entry program. Also, Richmond is the closest thing to Moscow I've seen in Canada. The Richmond mall that is near railway station, the terminal station if I remember correctly, is very similar to Moscow malls.
