Hi Renee; I found your family in the 1901 Census for Vancouver City as follows (found it on Ancestry.com) Reynard, George W. Born January 13, 1865 in England - emigrated to Canada in 1882 along with his wife, Reynard, Lucy E. show was born March 21, 1864 in England As of 1901, they had 2 children living with them, both born in ONTARIO Reynard, William J. Born July 16, 1884 in Ontario, and Reynard, Edith A. Born February 16, 1887 in Ontario. So, obviously the Reynard family was in Ontario from at least 1882 to 1887, but were in Vancouver by 1901.
