К ВОПРОСУ О РОССИЙСКО-КАНАДСКИХ
ОТНОШЕНИЯХ
Несмотря на сравнительную короткую историю официальных дипломатических
отношений, установленных между Канадой и Россией, интерес
к Канаде в России возник более двухсот лет назад. <...> Despite a relatively short history of diplomatic relations between the two countries,
Canada drew attention of the Russian intellectuals more than 200 years ago. <...> The article analyzes the forming of the relations between Russia and Canada, as
well as its present state. <...> Russo-Canadian relations for a long time were at the periphery of
both countries’ diplomacy. <...> Eventually, large territories on the other side
of the Atlantic ruled by the British Empire drew the attention of Russian
scholars and the government. <...> Similar geographic position, large spaces,

Bay Company, visited New Archangel regularly and even made a remarkable
journey from Alaska to St. Petersbourg by sled and carriage in
1841–1842. <...> Historically immigrants from Eastern
Europe played a great role in Canada’s history. <...> Historically the first Russian immigrants to Canada
were some Russian explorers of Alaska who came as early as the late 16th
century. <...> But the first substantial number of immigrants from Russia
came to Canada in the early 20th century. <...> A deeply entrenched stereotype
was that most of the emigrants from Russia had chosen to leave
their country because of political or religious oppression. <...> Until recently Canadian records classified these people as
“Russians”, as they were coming from the Russian Empire. <...> The climate of Canada’s prairies <...>
