I don't understand why the Ukrainians in Ukraine have a distinct Slavic look, while the Ukrainians in Canada look largely indistinguishable from Western Europeans (with many exceptions of course).
Perhaps it's because many of Alberta's Ukrainians are also part Polish, English, German, etc.
I also find it strange that most of Canada's Ukrainians seem to have a Catholic background, while most of the Ukrainians in Ukraine are Orthodox.
