This is a list of population estimates based on July 2017. This info is based on B.C. stats.

Vancouver 2592227 1.1% change 2016/2017
Victoria 374807 1.2%
Kelowna 199015 1.4%
Abbotsford-Mission 185039 1.2%
Nanaimo 109419 1.9%
Kamloops 106453 0.8%
Chilliwack 103048 1.2%
Prince George 82755 -0.7%
Vernon 63269 0.4%
Courtney 57505 1.2%
Penticton 46054 8.6%
Duncan 46050 1.4%

You will notice some differences between the 2016 estimate which was based on the 2011 census. While this estimate is based on the 2016 census. So the city of Chilliwack has come down from the previous estimate.
It was interesting to note the 8.6% year over year increase in Penticton.

So roughly 2.9 million in the Fraser Valley? Not too shabby. Would really be helpful for the region if there was better regional rail connectivity.
