Is there an emo or punk scene in Vancouver?

I've been wanting to meet other alt people, and go to shows, but I can't seem to find local bands or a local scene at all. So does it even exist? I know Emo Nite is hosted here occasionally, but that's not the type of "scene" I'm talking about. Since Vancouver is a major city, I feel like there is a local scene, but I've never heard of or seen one. I've met very few punk or emo people, but most of them didn't listen to the music or uphold the beliefs, and ones who did didn't know about any local scene. Any info is appreciated :))
