The majority of all cabinets are made from particle or plywood core. Stuff from the old days was mostly all plywood core as well so saying cabinetry now is all crap just isn't true. It is true particle core does not like water, but why would you have standing water inside your cabinets or drawers unless something is leaking? it would wreck the cabinet no matter what its made out of. Particle core is far more stable then plywood that is why it is used most now. You are not going to find cabinets boxes that are built out of 100% solid wood, they would be astronomically priced.

There are tons of cabinet shops in Calgary, I am sure they would do something up for you as "supply only" if you want to install yourself. Also tons of small guys that do there own cabinet work that I am sure would help you out.

Support your local trades and at least if you do have an issue down the road they will deal with it for you. Good luck in getting service from Wayfair etc. if you need a replacement slide, hinge, drawer front, etc.
