A redistribution before the 1991 election dramatically changed Vancouver's long-standing electoral map by the abandonment of the century-old tradition of multiple member districts. Vancouver East was abolished. Its principal successor ridings were Vancouver-Kensington, Vancouver-Hastings and Vancouver-Kingsway. Portions of Vancouver-Mount Pleasant and Vancouver-Burrard, formerly part of Vancouver Centre may also have been added.
