Defunct provincial electoral district in British Columbia, Canada
Vancouver-Burrard was a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia , Canada. It first appeared on the hustings in the 1933 general election , and included the neighborhoods of Kitsilano and Fairview. This version of the riding was abolished in 1979, and its territory was divided between Vancouver-Point Grey and Vancouver-Little Mountain .
In 1991 a new Vancouver-Burrard was established, containing the western half of the former Vancouver Centre . For the 2009 election , the riding was split across two new ridings. The portion west of Burrard, Georgia, and Jervis became the new Vancouver-West End riding.[1] The remainder of Vancouver-Burrard joined part of Vancouver-Fairview to become the new Vancouver-False Creek riding.
