I am not from BC but it looks like the Ensatina (Ensatina eschscholtzii) to me. You can identify the Ensatina by the presence of both a constriction at the base of the tail and five toes on the hind feet. They are usually 13-16 cm in total length so the one you found is likely a full grown adult.
Also, there are a couple problems with your second post: a) the first image tag must be [img] and then the last one must include the 'slash'
b) if that picture is under 25 kb then you can attach it like the first one, if it is larger than 25 kb you have to upload it to your photo account (you cannot directly link to pics on your hard drive that are bigger than 25 kb).
Cheers,
R

Holy cool find man! Look totally like an Ensatina!

But what is a "Salamandra"? I know that Salamandra is a genus of Euro salamanders (Fire, Alps, etc etc), but I have no idea what a "Salamandra" is. Maybe you meant salamander?

Yes, Alex, they are called "Salamanders" for most English-speaking people. Does your original language refer to them as "Salamandra"?

Also, I am fairly certain she is gravid. You can see the egg masses.

RMBolton, yes my original language (russian) does refer to them as "Salamandra".

Lol, it makes me want it back cause that way i might have being able to take a pair of babyes to reproduce in the future, and ones she would give babyes i would relice her. Or would it anyways be not good for hir for some reason?
