Canadian Dividend ETFs

Compare the NAV of ZWC and VDY since 2017 inception. ZWC share price down about 11% while VDY is up about 40%.

Could somebody explain why VFV and VOO have different outcomes when they both track the S&P500?
Do they have different portfolio weights or track one economy more than another? VFV was + 0.17% today and VOO -0.21%. I know one is CAD and the other USD, but whats the difference? Thanks everyone! $VANGUARD S&P 500 INDEX ETF TR UNIT (VFV.CA)$ $Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO.US)$
