Does anyone know of a retail shop in the lower mainland (BC) that
carries software for the programmer.

There must be 1000's of programmers in the lower mainland and yet it is
very difficult to get programming software here.  Sure you can get
Turbo C, Turbo Pascal, Borland C++ at all Egghead and even London Drugs
but how about other stuff (other compilers, assemblers, linkers, Windows
tools etc etc).

I would think there would be a market for such as store in Vancouver, no?

Any ideas?
