Moved to Vancouver recently, tell me which one or combination of ones is this part of Burnaby?

  • Law-feed
  • Low-weed
  • Loog-heed
  • Luffy (the Straw hat pirate)-d
  • Luffy (Like Fluffy without an F)-d
  • Lao-heed

Thanks for your help!

Sounds like Lowheed is the one that won out.

    The name of the 10th premier of Alberta, who won his party control in the '70s on a platform (featuring diversity in spending and preparing for a post-oil economy) all but ignored soon after, after whom the region is named, is apparently pronounced “LAW-heed”.

    Yeah. I’m dumbfounded too. I’ll continue to pronounce it “LOW-heed” so people don’t look at me funny. Bone apple tea.
