Because northern Poles are mainly Polish transplants from Ukraine and Belarus, right?
North Poles are not native to North Poland..

Quite a lot of their families were indeed from the Kresy.
Same as a sizeable proportion of the Wrocław population comes from Lwów. Including the famous Ossolineum library.
I would not call them transplants though. Rather very unwilling emigrants.
They were deported by the Soviets from their ancestral homelands and kicked to ancestral German homelands.

North Americans are not native to northern America right?

No more that 30% of current residents of this part of country are the Polish moved from from Ukraine and Bialorus.
It's definitely more complicated. It's not like in Wroclaw. Ask our premier minister - Donald Tusk - he is a Pole and his family are native to native to North Poland. ;)

Got some statistics to support that? At least in the Slupsk region a lot more than 30% of the current residents are descended from people who were moved there from Ukraine and Belorus.
