Victoria Flying Club - feedback please

Hi

I've done a search on this but haven't found any recent information so would appreciate any comments.

I'm a UK PPL holder and am wanting to come to Canada next year to get some quality hour building. I have looked at a few websites and VFC on Vancouver Island is currently first choice. I am keen to get some mountain flying as well as general navigation exercises etc.

Questions:
Is it a good area to fly in and is the weather reasonably reliable? I am thinking of going in March or April.
Is it a good school to go to to learn mountain flying?
Any downsides or other places that would serve me better?

Apperciate any feedback

Thanks
