    Answer

    Dear arleneboon, good morning. British Columbia is a long way from my region of expertise. The plant looks like a species of Clematis (virgin's-bower), vines in the crowfoot family. Except for the five petaloid sepals, it is reminiscent of our Clematis occidentalis (purple virgin's-bower), which typically shows four purple sepals. Good luck with your search for this plant's name.
