What is the difference between Greater Vancouver and the City of Vancouver?

Vancouver has only two districts, east and west. Each district is about the same size as New East City and New West City in Beijing. The scope of these two districts is strictly the "city of Vancouver". Generally speaking, Vancouver actually refers to the "Greater Vancouver Area". In addition to Vancouver, it also includes West Vancouver, North Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Coquitlam, and New Westminster.. .Roughly equivalent to Chaoyang District and Haidian District in Beijing... The boundary between cities is a street. Each city has its own mayor and city hall. The population of Vancouver refers to the population of Greater Vancouver. Vancouver's central business district is in downtown Vancouver, which belongs to the West District of Vancouver (not West Vancouver), similar to Beijing's CBD. The main stadium for this year's Winter Olympics is also in Vancouver's West End, and the ski resort is in neighboring Whistler, which is no longer in the Greater Vancouver area.
