Вот вам факт, изучайте и не несите чушьThe existing Ukrainian-Canadian communities will play an important role in helping with the settlement of Ukrainians displaced by the Russian invasion. Canada has a long history of admitting Ukrainians—especially Ukrainians displaced by war (CIHS, 2022). The first Ukrainians arrived in Canada in 1891, with 150,000 estimated to have landed between 1891 and 1914 (Government of Canada, 2020). Most Ukrainians from this period settled in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, where they could obtain farmland; others settled in towns across Canada to work in industrial occupations (Government of Canada, 2020). After the First World War, Canada witnessed a large wave of Ukrainian arrivals when Ukraine became part of the Soviet Union. Most arrived as refugees who settled in established Ukrainian communities, particularly in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and southern Ontario (Gerus & Rea, 1985; Government of Canada, 2020). At the end of the Second World War, a third wave of Ukrainians arrived in Canada (Government of Canada, 2020), and by 1952 approximately 30,000 Ukrainians landed in Canada, primarily as refugees (Government of Canada, 2020; Hou & Yan, 2020). After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, about 112,000 immigrants arrived in Canada from Ukraine by 2016 (Hou & Yan, 2020), and another 14,000 arrived between 2017 and 2021 (IRCC 2022).Note  With the recent Russian invasion of Ukraine, millions of Ukrainians have been displaced. In response, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has introduced new measures to admit Ukrainians to Canada (Government of Canada, 2022).This article compares the Ukrainian-Canadian population with Canada’s national population using the 2016 Census of Population. The findings provide information on current Ukrainian-Canadians, including their geographic distribution, demographics, employment and economic profiles.In the 2016 Census, about 1.36 million people, or close to 4% of the Canadian population, reported at least one of their ethnic origins as Ukrainian.Note  Among this 4%, about 20% reported Ukrainian as their only ethnic origin, 29% reported one other ethnic origin in addition to Ukrainian, and 51% reported two or more other ethnic origins. Among Ukrainians reporting multiple ethnic origins, the most common other ethnic origins were British, Polish, German and other European origins, as well as “Canadian.” Individuals reporting Ukrainian as their sole ethnic origin were more likely to have Ukrainian as their mother tongue (27%) compared with those reporting multiple ethnic origins (2%). About 2% of Ukrainian-Canadians spoke Ukrainian most often at home, and this rate was higher among those reporting sole ethnic origin (8%) than those reporting multiple ethnic origins (0.5%).https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/36-28-0001/2022004/article/00003-eng.htm
