Ontario Street is the name of an important north-south street bisecting Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It runs from 1st Avenue by False Creek in the north, to Kent Avenue alongside the north arm of the Fraser River in the south. It is important because it is the dividing street between Vancouver West and Vancouver East.
