Vancouver-Mount Pleasant is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, Canada. It was one of only two electoral districts to return an NDP MLA in the 2001 election when the NDP was nearly wiped off the electoral map, and it did so by a much wider margin than Vancouver-Hastings, the other seat to return a New Democrat. The NDP routinely wins by over 40 points in this riding. Even during the 2001 landslide victory for the BC Liberals, the NDP won this riding by over 10 points, despite a massive province-wide turn away from the party. Vancouver-Mount Pleasant is therefore considered one of the safest NDP seats in all of British Columbia. This riding consists of its namesake neighbourhood Mount Pleasant, Vancouver and the eastern parts of downtown Vancouver including Chinatown and Downtown Eastside while the western parts of downtown make up the neighbouring riding of Vancouver-False Creek.
