    Ukraine!? That’s both hilarious and bizarre. First, a Canadian paper didn’t know Canada isn’t the world’s second largest country. Second, Ukraine isn’t even CLOSE. It’s not even the second biggest former Soviet republic – that would be Kazakhstan. According to Wikipedia’s list of the world’s largest countries by land area, Ukraine barely cracks the top 50.
