"This long-standing waterfront restaurant is singled out in recollections of the chain’s historical outreach to Vancouver: Donegan says the founder wanted visiting Canadians to stop by the waterfront and visit the location, recalling that “And [the chain] was the largest advertiser on Vancouver radio and television during the ’50s and the ’60s, because whenever any Canadians came to town, he wanted to stop by the waterfront and visit [that location].” The restaurant figures into the chain’s broader effort to signal continued warmth toward Canadian visitors through the Open Arms for Canada campaign." - Harry Cheadle
