Well, unfortunately, all of that is overridden by this statement I found on the
City of Nanaimo's own map portal:
"All rights, title and interest (including copyright, patent and other
intellectual property rights) contained in the Information remain vested
in the City of Nanaimo at all times."

I am no legal person by any means, and Nanaimo has adopted v2 of the OGL since
I last looked at it. Paul Norman mentioned he was going to look into it when
there was a moment to do so.
The way I read v2 of the license is that it is available to use so long as you
acknowledge the source with the defined attribution statement of the region.
“Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence - Nanaimo.”
If multiple sources were used or multiple attributions are not practical, one
would use
“Contains information licensed under the Open Government License – British
Columbia.”

Though it looks like they missed updating the last paragraph under Versioning.
To answer your actual question though, nope I am not aware of another WMS
source J

Subject: [Talk-ca] Aerial imagery for Nanaimo, BC
Does anyone know of an OSM-compatible free WMS source we can use for aerial
imagery for all of Nanaimo? Bing does not have street-level imagery for
Nanaimo north of 49.14°N and east of 123.94°W, and all of the sources I can
find for that imagery (Google, the City of Nanaimo itself) are walled off
behind a layer of legal cowardice.
