Natalya says hello, But it stands beside the real person to say a wrong judgement.

Edmonton isn't a dead city, but it's not like Vancouver, or Montreal. For the comment about Russian rednecks, nonsense! Most Europeans who come to Canada maintain older national traditions, while just fitting into society on a day-to-day basis. Should Russian emigres wear ushanka, and felt boots?

Sorry for the true story.
Deadmonton is Deadmonton.Russian( former USSR) people open your eyes.You can't be western rednecks.Please,don't copy them.
I live in Edmonton:(((.I travelled a lot and I can compare.Russian community looks like smile of the
car dealer who sell one of the sh...y car and tell you that you will able to win Indy race if you buy this one.Actualy we are not Russian anymore as soon as we moved.

Привет народ,Мы хотим приехать в Едмонтон из Торонто у нас есть несколько вопросов.Будем очень благодарны за помощь.Есть ли в городе русско-говорящая община, русско-говорящие районы.Сайты где можно больше узнать информации и встретить друзей.

This website has been a great help with my project, as has the Russian Recreation Club website. Thanks for the great info and photos.

What do you mean where? Pictures had been taken by me in Izmail.

Where did you get pictures from Izmail?

I don't agree. In my opinion, Edmonton is a very sweet city with nice unobtrusive lifestyle. It's very western and concervative but pleasantly stable and predictable. It's not as flashy as Toronto or Vancouver and not as sofisticated as Ottawa and Montreal but still a lovely city with its own agenda and constant development.

Edmonton is a dead city!!!! Depressing!!! I russkie zdes kakieto otmorojennie!!!! loshari

Похоже у вас в городе ваще нет молодых пацанов и девченок. Скушнаа!!!

Edmonton rules!!! Russians are the best!!!

После просмотра фотографий я понял, что именно в ваш город я хочу переехать и жить там, потому что я вижу, что русские в вашем городе живут дружно и весело, не так как другие русские эмигранты в других городах. Они грызутся там и отравляют друг другу жизнь, а вы молодцы. Вы собираетесь вместе, на природу и вобще.Мне очень понравилось!

Hi! I enjoy your photographs of Edmonton and Edmonton Russian Community. It must have taken you months/ years to compile such a lovely collection. I am researching Eastern-European communities in Alberta. With your photos in hand, I was able to learn more about them. Thank you!

I think these photos could make an awesome collection for the future archive of the Russian community in western Canada. It is great that there are some creative and enthusiastic people who take time to take photographs and maintain the visual letopis' of the events.

Спасибо за прекрасные фотографии. Теперь мы знаем, как выглядит Эдмонтон и какая в нем русская община.
