Dare I suggest Sewage Ponds (Iona Island immediately south of Vancouver)?
Reifel Refuge is also excellent but is a little bit further south from
Vancouver (small admission fee). Both are excellent.

The Vancouver Natural History Society Website lists two dozen hotspots for
birds in the Greater Vancouver area:

I will be in Vancouver, BC for the weekend in the middle of July. I have 1
morning to go birding. Does anyone have any suggestions of where to spend
it?

Thanks
