Another way to go is the Amex Aeroplan Platinum card - it gives you lounge access as well.
There is free internet in the YVR lounges - just not free wireless (you have to plug into their port). I have been in all of the YVR Lounges (Domestic, USA-Intll, True Intll) and the AC lounges are the best.
They are very comfy - the one that is usually packed is the true International lounge b/c it's heavily shared with the other SA carriers. It's also the smallest (seems dumb doesn't it...)
Good Beer, decent snacks, decent lavatories, usually nice and quiet too. When there is a delay you'll be very happy that you are in there - instead of out with the 'mopes...
