There is a network of fast chargers throughout Southwest BC from southern Vancouver Island up through to Revelstoke. For example, there are chargers at Whistler, Manning Park, Boston Bar, Penticton, Salmon Arm, and many points between these. These chargers have dual CHAdeMO and CCS cords so they can be used by cars with either type of socket. There are still some gaps (no charger yet at Kamloops or Merrit), but I believe they will be filled in over the coming year.
The remaining major gaps are northern Vancouver Island, the Crowsnest Highway east of the Okanagan, and everything north of Highway 1. There are chargers available in those areas, but they're not DC fast chargers.
