{{about|the provincial electoral district|the defunct federal electoral district|Vancouver—Burrard (federal electoral district)}}
'''Vancouver-Burrard''' was a provincial [[electoral district (Canada)|electoral district]] for the [[Legislative Assembly of British Columbia]], Canada. It first appeared on the [[hustings]] in the [[1933 British Columbia general election|1933 general election]] and included the neighbourhoods of Kitsilano and Fairview. This version of the riding was abolished in 1979, and its territory was divided between [[Vancouver-Point Grey]], [[Vancouver-Little Mountain]], and [[Vancouver Centre (provincial electoral district)|Vancouver Centre]]. 

In 1991, a new Vancouver-Burrard was established, containing the western half of the former [[Vancouver Centre (provincial electoral district)|Vancouver Centre]]. For the [[2009 British Columbia general election|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.<ref>[http://www.bc-ebc.ca/final_report/google_maps/ Proposed SMP Boundaries<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> The remainder of Vancouver-Burrard joined part of [[Vancouver-Fairview]] to become the new [[Vancouver-False Creek]] riding.
