a famous yet debatable advertising slogan...but the Guinness family were good for Vancouver when, in the late 1930s, they built this bridge across the waters of Burrard Inlet...seems they owned 4,000 acres of land in West Vancouver, and wanted to make it accessible to potential buyers...the Lion’s Gate bridge was literally the missing link, and the land sold well...oddly though, at the risk of ruffling a few feathers in Ireland, the prime area for housing, higher up with great views, was named British Properties
