In bowl, stir together corn relish ingredients and mix thoroughly. Refrigerate for at least three hours to marry flavors.
Whisk together all of the vinegars, orange juice, Dijon mustard, garlic, onion, salt and black pepper in a large bowl; Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. Set aside.
In bowl, toss cucumbers and onions with 1/2 cup of the country vinaigrette. Chill for at least one hour.
