Proposed ID at Mushroom Observer: chlorophyllum olivieri. 

Some info on c. olivieri from the UK: http://www.wildaboutbritain.co.uk/chlorophyllum-olivieri

On Google right now, trying to find out more about it occurring in BC & the PNW & its reported edibility.  Anybody have experience with this particular species, especially in this region?

Chlorophyllum olivieri is known from both Europe and the Pacific Northwest. It's related to Chlorophyllum rachodes and is similarly edible.
