Dude, that sucks. And I don't mean to make light of it. I've been laid-off before and my own job is in the precarious mortgage industry.
Please do follow-up calls and politely 'pester' everyone when you do apply with employers. The squeaky wheel gets the grease (and sometimes the 2nd interview too).
And if Vancouver is a better market, you could realistically go there, right? Even temporarily, for a few years, to follow the money? Larger cities offer more opportunities.
I do hope you can get some leads. You have the kind of curious devotion to architecture that most firms NEED.
