The Vancouver Aquarium is a respected centre for marine research, conservation and marine mammal rehabilitation. It is often referred to as VAMSC or Vanaqua by regular visitors.
The aquarium is run by a self-supporting not-for-profit association. The operation of the aquarium receives no government funding. The aquarium recently had a major renovation of one of its exhibits which opened to the public in November 2006.
