Just back from a 1,000+ mile road trip from Bellingham Washington through southern BC. We have a 2025 Kia EV9 Wind with a range of about 300 or so miles. Our first charger stop in Merritt BC and it was our only wait. We spent the time chatting with all the other people there because it was everyone's first EV road trip and we got to see the VW Buzz up close. 

The charging system in that region is excellent. Flo, BC Hydro, Electrify Canada, and a convenience store system - we used them all. Several required a different app, which was the only hassle. A few of the chargers are a bit slow but the timing generally worked out for us to have lunch or dinner near the charger for an hour. There was never anyone waiting for us. There are even chargers (albeit slow ones) at some of the rest stops. 

My husband LOVES road trips and I have a touchy back so I never wanted to go very far in our old ICE cars. But this was a really pleasant trip in a super comfortable car. We had some anxiety before we left about range/charging but we found plenty of chargers, even in more remote areas such as Arrow Lakes and south of Golden.
