About
Andrew S. Shandro (April 3, 1886 at Russ Banilla [probably the modern village of Banyliv-Pidhirnyi], Bukowina, which was then a province of the Austro-Hungarian Empire – January 13, 1942 at Edmonton, Alberta), was the first Ukrainian Canadian to be elected to the Alberta Legislature. Shandro was the son of Stefan Shandro and his wife, Anastasia (née Ostashek). He was of Ukrainian descent and a member of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada. His grandfather was a judge and an uncle was a general in the Austro-Hungarian army. He migrated to Canada in 1899 with his parents and settled northeast of Andrew, Alberta near the North Saskatchewan River. He became a prominent farmer and was postmaster of a rural community that bore his family's name (Shandro, Alberta).
