Tech companies in Vancouver that pay their new grad engineers $70K+ CAD?

Not Vancouver, WA, the Portland suburb, but Vancouver, BC, the Canadian city.

They have to be hiring permanent, full-time workers for a Vancouver engineering office, so no Splunk or FB. Also, no "just move to SV/Seattle/K-W" comments because that's not the point I'm trying to make here.

I thought it would be interesting to create a blacklist of local companies that lowball new grads, have a stuffy enterprise-heavy engineering stack, or are otherwise poor places to work. Here are some companies I'd avoid: MDA, Fortinet, TELUS, SNC-Lavalin, AirG, Global Relay, Vision Critical (although things may change with their imminent IPO) SAP/Crystal Technologies, Capcom Vancouver, and Grouplend (since founder Kevin Sandhu makes his engineers work 80 hours a week, as he revealed in a recent Globe and Mail article).
