Lived in BC for 8 months back in 2002. LOVED it. Really like Canadians and the country itself.
Sure it's pretty different now, plus I was just a youngster at the time having a blast.
Anyway, early days... those who've been, please expand on your experience!!

A breathtaking country with some of the friendliest and laid back people I've ever met. Pretty much true to the "politest folk in the World" stereotype. (of course there will always be exceptions to the rule, it's no Utopia)
If you're close enough to the border in Okanagan you can always pop across to the states to get lots of stuff cheaper, and marvel at the immediate culture shift literally the moment you do! And the reservations are like mini duty free zones (although it is frowned upon to buy stuff if you're not actually Native - i.e. a bit illegal but not fiercely enforced).
If you've no ties keeping you on this side of the pond and there's opportunities for you out there, go, go now!
*edit* It really does get quite unbelievably cold in the Winter!

Go check out some of the expat forums for good real world stories.
Personally I think I'd be more than happy to go for it if I was happy with the job and the visa situation, and liked the outdoor life.
Bear in mind BC is very cold. My bro lives just next door in Calgary, and it was -26 last week. If you're not into skiing or boarding winters are long and harsh...if you're a skier, winters are long stretches of powder paradise
Sounds idyllic to me !
