Tolstoi was founded by [[Ukrainians|Ukrainian]] immigrants in the 1890s, one of the earliest Ukrainian settlements in [[western Canada]]. Once a thriving community, Tolstoi's population has declined dramatically in recent decades. Its current population is generally older, as most young people have left for jobs in Winnipeg.<ref>{{cite web|last=Redekop |first=Bill |url=http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/special/churches/Tale-of-two-churches-69989257.html |title=Tale of two churches |publisher=Winnipegfreepress.com |date= |accessdate=2013-12-18}}</ref>
