I'm on the island, and do work for a US company (contract, monthly wire xfer in USD).
I've had lead/architect roles tossed my way that pay 180k+ CAD which is more than I'm making but I'm not quite ready to move yet. I lead a small, smart dev team and enjoy my role.
Vancouver's real estate bubble is spilling over and lots of people are being priced out here, too. Especially given the tech community is smaller so most people work for the provincial government, trades etc.
