It's a very diverse place - you have people from basically everywhere.

OP said “mostly” not “solely”. I think this is probably accurate.

No, it isn't. There are a lot of people of Chinese ethnicity in Vancouver but it is nowhere near the dominant fraction. But there is a very nice Chinatown (great food).

The ethnic 'whites' are about 50%, ethnic Chinese is now ~25%, it was quite a bit lower when I was still living in Canada so it was definitely on the rise but the increase seems to have leveled off.

Some externally sourced data that more or less confirms this:
