Renting planes in the Vancouver BC area after getting my PPL?

Hi guys, I'm in my early thirties and has finally started working on my PPL to start flying as a hobby. I don't think I can justify purchasing an aircraft until I'm much older (or perhaps never lol), so renting is the only option.

I spoke to my school and they only rent to students for additional training with instructors after getting my license, and its only an hour or two at a time.

I spoke to some flight schools at Boundary Bay and it seemed they also only rent to former students.

Are there agencies/flight clubs at Boundary Bay/Abbotsford/Pitt Meadows, etc. that would rent to someone who only has a PPL and was interested in taking family up in the air or maybe going to Tofino/Banff for a few days and back?

Thanks so much!
