You have to be careful about factoring in things like stock options and bonuses as part of the compensation package, because that will vary year over year. Say if you don't hit your performance targets throughout the quarter, and you don't perform as expected, you won't get a bonus, or rather, you may not have a job mid-way. The same goes for stock options.
Salaries are often lower in Vancouver for tech roles mainly due to the lack of skillsets and experience on the market. That and Vancouver is not regarded as a tech hub. To hit a $120K salary, you'd have to be a very specialized or a combination of experience and tenure. I sure as hell wouldn't pay $120K to a junior level front end or back end developer in Vancouver who graduated from UBC.
