I do not know what that has to do with the comment you replied to. The second part is false. As the only Vancouverite on duty here on HN at this hour, I suppose it is my duty to correct you.
When people say Vancouver, they are often referring to the metro region. 49.3% are of European ethnic origin[0], with the remainder a broad mix. There certainly is a large Chinese population. We have the second-largest Chinatown in N. America, after SF. We have a lot of Cantonese speakers here.
There was a Chinese-focused ride hailing service that flew under the radar back when Uber/Lyft weren't permitted. It feels like a separate world sometimes. I'd like to learn Cantonese and/or Mandarin, just so I could peek into it.
