I browsed Etsy, the popular e-commerce website for handmade and vintage items, to find more nifty products that boast the goodness of the 604:

If you’re in Vancouver, you can find more great local gifts at shops on Main Street, Commercial Drive, and in Gastown but the benefit of Etsy is its worldwide reach.
