The biggest burger I've tried in BC was that famous Mountain Burger at Mrs Riches in the Island ( Nanaimo ). After eating healthy organic food in a yoga retreat in Tofino last year - I just had to do it afterwards.

Really? Boston Pizza makes a pretty good burger? I'm gonna try it next time. Everytime I go there I get the pizza and wings. Maybe a burger next time lolHave eaten at Wally's, Splitz, WhiteSpot and Boston Pizza over the past 2 weeks to compare. Wally's isn't even half what it use to be, texture of shoe leather ... i won't be back (old place was 1 minute away). Splitz is what it is ... always overcooked whatever type of meat you order, i like the Bison. Whitespot Swiss shroom burger is always delicious. But the Boston Pizza Prime Rib comes in first, they cook them to perfection ... just wish they weren't so darn expensive.
I have to side with the OP and his first choice....the bacon cheddar burger at Whitespot is fucking sublime....the triple O sauce is what truly makes it and it is best served with onion rings instead of fries....thankfully the Whitespot has a couple of franchises in Calgary that started up and have kept going stong.
For local competition in Calgary there are only 2 good options...Peters drive-in on 16th ave which is pretty much an institution....awesome burgers and even better milkshakes....the other choice is Angels drive-in in Bowness....on Bowness Rd just down from C.O.P.....they make some damn good burgers and have been around since 1975 or prior.....if you visit Calgary or live here be sure to go to Angels for a wicked burger.

OK, you made me wanna try this...how much time do I have?I was at the A&W today and i had their specialty Teen Burger with guacamole and hot peppers for $4. It's one of the better burgers from a franchise chain that i have had in quite some time but is only available for a limited time. I'm going to give them a call later and let them know if they can bring it back every so often.
