Demonym[edit]

Anyone know the demonym for Burnaby residents? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.155.165.37 (talk) 23:46, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Might just be me and my circle, but we usually just refer to ourselves as Vancouverites. Haven't ever heard a demonym for Burnaby residents specifically. --24.87.60.211 (talk) 22:42, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seconded, rather long afterwards but yeah. Most people in Burnaby consider themselves Vancouverites. It's basically the eastern third of the city proper in every way short of political annexation, anyway. 2001:569:7BB7:D200:CC12:35A0:10F3:A99B (talk) 07:19, 12 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article for Metrotown neighbourhood[edit]

I've been working on a draft for the Metrotown neighbourhood at my sandbox, and I think it's almost ready for launch. There are a few things that I think need to be discussed (in particular the article title), so please head over to the talk page for the current Metrotown article to share your thoughts. - Hinto (talk) 18:10, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
