Again using a misleading chart.
If you nuke downtown today and hollow-out the city centre by killing off the population, the chart you are showing, from 2016 to 2021 still shows downtown leading in population growth.

Today's Rental Market Report from CMHC shows the rental vacancy rate for Vancouver went down from 2.6% in October 2020 to 1.2% in October 2021. (In the same period the vacancy rate in Toronto went up from 3.4% to 4.6%). Vancouver had the lowest vacancy rate of any Canadian city - and it also has the lowest vacancy rate in office space. There are obviously problems in the city, and the region, but lack of demand, or suggesting people and businesses are leaving just isn't true. Unless you care to show something from 2022 to 2022 to show that it is?
