So my friends and I were talking about taking a ski trip up there sometime. I think the place we liked is called Whistler? Is that a good resort?
Whistler/Blackcomb is popular. Some have rated it as the top in North America, for quite a few years. Lots of runs, good variety. It is an hour and a half from Vancouver. The link below has a link to their web site.

The alternative is in the interior of BC, either in the Okanagan, or the Kootenay mountains. Both are a little harder to get to, but can have better powder as they are further away from the coast. Here is a directory: http://www.britishcolumbia.com/ski/

If you want to try inland, suggest you look at Red Mountain for something different, or Apex, Big White, or Silver Star. Having said that, a lot of people like Whistler.
