Hard to compare because Chinese migration to Vancouver is much more recent than the Cuban migration to Miami. The bulk of the Chinese population in Vancouver has come since the Hong Kong handover, which happened...21 years ago?! Wow where does time go. I feel like I just watched Rush Hour and that just happened.
The Cuban migration by comparison started in the late 1950s-early 1960s, and it spurned a larger Latin American migration. So given that, I'd say Cubans in Miami
Hmm, I am not sure this one is as clear cut as the posts above suggest. I would probably say if it's a city comparison I lean slightly towards Cuban-Miami but it's close. If metro area then pretty solidly Chinese-Vancouver.
I believe the Cuban population in the city of Miami is ~34% while Chinese in the city of Vancouver is ~30%. However, it's widely accepted that the wildly overpriced real estate in Vancouver is primarily due to Chinese investment, while the same certainly cannot be said for Miami. If this was a comparison of Asian:Vancouver vs South American:Miami then the latter would win comprehensively.

I agree. I wonder if most who chose Miami have even been to Vancouver
Not all Hispanics in Miami are Cuban, but they dominate the Hispanic aspect of Miami's culture.
Overall something like two thirds of Miami city proper is Hispanic and close to half the metro population is Hispanic.
The majority of the population in Miami city speaks Spanish at home and just under half in Miami metro speaks Spanish at home.
Vancouver isn't close to any of these metrics either for Chinese origins or Chinese languages.
