What people like in a pizza varies considerably. There are also strong national differences in how it is prepared. I remember in Germany they would ask, "do you want an egg on that?" and if you said yes, they would crack a raw egg on the top for the last 5 minutes of baking. So if you look at the title and say "how does Brian know what I think is the best pizza?" I would agree that I do not. I also have to admit that I have not tried all the pizza places in BC in a fair comparison.
With those caveats, my vote goes to the Bold Pizzeria in Kamloops. It is a wood oven fired style, but with heavier toppings than is usual for that style. They have an excellent version of "the works" style pizza called The Average Joe. They also have a revolving monthly selection of special recipes which are really innovative. I had the luck of having two of those on visits to my father. He is now living with us in Vancouver which means I do not have an opportunity to go back for more.
In Vancouver, the two places that come close are Burrata Pizzeria in Kerrisdale, my new neighborhood, and Cotto Enoteca Pizzeria in Burnaby. Both very good. For traditional inexpensive delivery pizza or pizza by the slice, I like Uncle Fatih.
