I hope the formatting works for this table - it is for the 1996 census.
As you can see, Blacks and Hispanics make up a relatively small portion of Vancvouer's population. Also note (this isn't in the table) that a lot of Blacks in Vancouver are from the Caribbean or direct from African countries, and a fair number of the Hispanics/Latin Americans are from Central and South America.
