'''Vancouver East''' ({{langx|fr|'''Vancouver-Est'''}}) is a federal electoral district in British Columbia, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 1935. Since 2015, it has been represented by New Democratic Party MP Jenny Kwan.

Vancouver East is known as a New Democratic Party stronghold; the NDP and its Co-operative Commonwealth Federation predecessor have won all but two elections in the riding since its creation in 1933. Both losses (in 1974 and in 1993) have come at the hands of Liberal candidates who failed to retain the seat at the next election. The Conservative Party and its right-leaning predecessors have always fared poorly in the riding, rarely garnering more than 20 percent of the vote.

In the 2006 federal election, the NDP won a higher percentage of the vote in Vancouver East than in any other riding in the country: 56.6 percent. In the 2011 election, the NDP increased its majority win to 62.83 percent.

==Geography== The district includes the City of Vancouver neighbourhoods of Downtown Eastside, Mount Pleasant, Grandview–Woodland, and Hastings–Sunrise.

==Demographics== Though Vancouver East is home to a predominantly impoverished underclass populace, it is also home to a prominent industrial and working-class riding. The district is well known for hosting North America's largest Chinatown, in addition to being one of the poorest areas in the Metro Vancouver Regional District, known as the Downtown Eastside. 42 percent of the riding's inhabitants are immigrants and 22 percent are of Chinese ancestry. A high number, 63 percent, of residents are renters. 24 percent of residents over age 25 have a university certificate or degree. Manufacturing, tourism, shipping, accommodation and food service industries are vital to the employment base in this riding. The average family income is over {{CAD|61,000|link=yes}}. The unemployment rate is about 7.7 percent.<ref>[http://www.cbc.ca/news/canadavotes/riding/299/ Vancouver East], CBC.ca, 2008.</ref>

The ethnically diverse area is home to many of the city's artists and socio-political activists. In recent years,{{When|date=May 2024|reason=MOS:RELTIME}} the area has been negatively affected by an influx of hard drugs and the concomitant social consequences associated with their use. {| class="wikitable collapsible sortable" |+ Panethnic groups in Vancouver East (2011−2021) ! rowspan="2" |Panethnic group ! colspan="2" |2021<ref name="2021censusB">{{Cite web |last=Government of Canada |first=Statistics Canada |date=October 26, 2022 |title= Census Profile, 2021 Census of Population |url=https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2021/dp-pd/prof/details/page.cfm?Lang=E&SearchText=Vancouver&DGUIDlist=2013A000459035&GENDERlist=1,2,3&STATISTIClist=1&HEADERlist=0 |access-date=February 16, 2023 |website=www12.statcan.gc.ca}}</ref> ! colspan="2" |2016<ref name="2016census">{{Cite web |last=Government of Canada |first=Statistics Canada |date=October 27, 2021 |title= Census Profile, 2016 Census |url=https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2016/dp-pd/prof/details/page.cfm?Lang=E&Geo1=FED&Code1=59035&Geo2=PR&Code2=59&SearchText=Vancouver&SearchType=Begins&SearchPR=01&B1=All&TABID=1&type=0 |access-date=February 16, 2023 |website=www12.statcan.gc.ca}}</ref> ! colspan="2" |2011<ref name="2011census">{{Cite web |last=Government of Canada |first=Statistics Canada |date=November 27, 2015 |title= NHS Profile |url=https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/nhs-enm/2011/dp-pd/prof/details/page.cfm?Lang=E&Geo1=FED2013&Code1=59035&Data=Count&SearchText=Vancouver&SearchType=Begins&SearchPR=01&A1=All&B1=All&Custom=&TABID=1 |access-date=February 16, 2023 |website=www12.statcan.gc.ca}}</ref> |- !{{abbr|Pop.|Population}} !{{Abbr|%|percentage}} !{{abbr|Pop.|Population}} !{{Abbr|%|percentage}} !{{abbr|Pop.|Population}} !{{Abbr|%|percentage}} |- | European{{efn|Statistic includes all persons that did not make up part of a visible minority or an indigenous identity.|name="euro"}} | 58,615 | {{Percentage | 58615 | 113805 | 2 }} | 58,580 | {{Percentage | 58580 | 109905 | 2 }} | 52,315 | {{Percentage | 52315 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | East Asian{{efn|Statistic includes total responses of "Chinese", "Korean", and "Japanese" under visible minority section on census.|name="EastAsian"}} | 25,600 | {{Percentage | 25600 | 113805 | 2 }} | 26,880 | {{Percentage | 26880 | 109905 | 2 }} | 27,590 | {{Percentage | 27590 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | Southeast Asian{{efn|Statistic includes total responses of "Filipino" and "Southeast Asian" under visible minority section on census.|name="SoutheastAsian"}} | 9,270 | {{Percentage | 9270 | 113805 | 2 }} | 8,975 | {{Percentage | 8975 | 109905 | 2 }} | 10,500 | {{Percentage | 10500 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | Indigenous | 5,940 | {{Percentage | 5940 | 113805 | 2 }} | 5,880 | {{Percentage | 5880 | 109905 | 2 }} | 5,055 | {{Percentage | 5055 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | South Asian | 3,850 | {{Percentage | 3850 | 113805 | 2 }} | 2,760 | {{Percentage | 2760 | 109905 | 2 }} | 2,310 | {{Percentage | 2310 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | Latin American | 3,330 | {{Percentage | 3330 | 113805 | 2 }} | 1,975 | {{Percentage | 1975 | 109905 | 2 }} | 1,950 | {{Percentage | 1950 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | African | 2,165 | {{Percentage | 2165 | 113805 | 2 }} | 1,685 | {{Percentage | 1685 | 109905 | 2 }} | 1,445 | {{Percentage | 1445 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | Middle Eastern{{efn|Statistic includes total responses of "West Asian" and "Arab" under visible minority section on census.|name="MiddleEastern"}} | 1,710 | {{Percentage | 1710 | 113805 | 2 }} | 1,065 | {{Percentage | 1065 | 109905 | 2 }} | 835 | {{Percentage | 835 | 103920 | 2 }} |- | Other{{efn|Statistic includes total responses of "Visible minority, {{abbr|n.i.e.|not included elsewhere}}" and "Multiple visible minorities" under visible minority section on census.|name="Other"}} | 3,320 | {{Percentage | 3320 | 113805 | 2 }} | 2,115 | {{Percentage | 2115 | 109905 | 2 }} | 1,925 | {{Percentage | 1925 | 103920 | 2 }} |- !
