Originally under the care of the Russian Orthodox Church, the Syro-Levantine Eastern Orthodox Christian immigrants to the United States and Canada were granted their own jurisdiction under the Church of Antioch in the wake of the Bolshevik Revolution.
This is a group of ex-Russian Orthodox faithful who changed jurisdictions within Orthodoxy, which happens all the time as all our Churches are in communion with one another. This is a far cry from what you wrote:
