The airfares are at all time lows now! Who knows how long this will last? Especially since the Summer Travel rush might be happening soon, in addition to gas hikes for the summer travel season.

Visit Kayak.com to compare airfare from all air lines from your city to Victoria, BC, Vancouver, BC, or Seattle, WA.

Now would also be a good time to book your tickets for the Washington State Ferry (Anacortes port), British Columbia Ferries (Vancouver-Tsawassen), and Car Rental.

I recommend the BC Ferries route. You may also want to consider adding GPS or Navigation to your car rental if it is reasonably priced. If not, consider buying a state map for WA and a Province Map BC which has a special focus on Vancouver Island. Maps will be necessary, as Victoria is small, but not 100% walkable.
