I'll answer the second part first.  La Nina is suppose to bring on heavier
snowfall this winter - that remains to be seen - El Nino was blamed for just
about every weather related anomoly last year so I don't put too much faith
in such things.  As long as I've lived in Vancouver the most snow I have
ever seen was last December and it lasted a total of about four days.  On
average we get about two snowfalls a year and the snow barely lasts a full
day.  What we do get is rain and the West Coast of the Island is one of the
rainiest spots on earth regardless of the time of year so even if it does
rain more this year I doubt you will notice.  That being said I should
clarify a few things, the West Coast trail itself is a week long gruelling
trail, not to be attempted by anyone without the proper gear and experience.
However it is just one part of Pacific Rim National Park and there are many
other less difficult options.  Frankly I find the West Coast trail is a bit
overated, the scenery is beautiful but there is an abundance of great
scenery on the Island and across the water at Olympic National Park in
Washington.  Of the two I have hiked the Olympic Penisula more often because
the $100 cost of a round trip ferry ride to Vancouver Island.  I don't know
of any specific web page but I know both governments host their own National
Park web sites which can be easily found using a search engine.  In addition
literally hundreds of local bed & breakfasts, hotels, tour operators etc
have web pages devoted to this area.  I'll leave it at that I don't know
specifically what you want/expect to see or how you plan to spend your days
so I can't help you much more plus I'm from the lower mainland not the
Island so I'm not really an expert on that area.  Good Luck & Enjoy Canada
