RDS stations in BC

Boy these radios suck here in Canada! I was wondering if there are ANY stations at all that have anything to do with RDS. I was hoping to find out all the stations in BC that do have this super-cool feature.Here in Greater Vancouver, a couple do broadcast RDS signals. Z95.3 says "todays best music". There might be another which has a similiar slogan too.Just the other day, though, I noticed one station, actually broadcasts the name of song, artist, time and temperature, and slogan! yayyyyyy! The only drawback to this is that it is QM/FM. lolAlthough Its alot better than some stations, it isn't my favourite. An interesting fact too; I recently drove down to the states into Washington, and with the lower reception, the RDS info vanished too. I could hear the music okay, but I guess it doesn't take much range for that data to be lost.Any other RDS stations in this province??
