There's been some pretty amazing prices to Bali out of Vancouver lately, thanks to some awesome prices on Malaysia Airlines in conjunction with Japan Airlines. It's also possible to get an extended stopover in Tokyo, and I know there's been some people that have used this deal to get to Perth cheaply as well.

We booked it at the 756 price with the Japan stop over and have brought 350 return flights from Bali to Perth Australia as well. We were looking at flights to Perth for April and May and we were looking at 2100. We now have the same destination with an added stop in Bali for nearly a grand less Per person. This is a MAGICAL deal and worth booking. Dont dilly dally, you know you will regret it!

From YYC, I'd ballpark the typical bottom to DPS at around $1200-$1300 roundtrip inc. taxes. $1100 would be unusual Don't believe it's ever gone under $1000 from what I can recall.
The fastest it can be typically be done is around 25 hours of total travel time there, and 22 hours coming home. An example in May that is somewhat close to this mark, both in terms of price and travel time....

You can find pretty reasonable flight prices between Perth and Bali. My sister lives in Perth and Denpasar is one of the few places she can travel to from this very isolated Australian city for a decent price. AirAsia has flights for just $273 roundtrip incl. taxes. $394 on Jetstar...

So you could theoretically get both roundtrip flights (YYC-DPS + DPS-PER) for $1300 + $273, or $1573. I'd compare that against multi-city flight search to see what the price difference is.
