My source for 75% of Canada Line traffic being within Vancouver is from a Richmond News article on May 28th that quoted Ken Hardie:

The YVR line carries an average of 9,300 passengers per day, Hardie said. That's about 10 per cent of the total daily number of 94,000. By contrast, about 15 per cent of riders use the Richmond segment (Bridgeport to Brighouse).
