The 'consistently' part is going to be a problem, but that goes for the whole winter these days.. Winters are changing..
To be more possitive, last year you could shred fresh pow until june in Chamonix.. Chase the snow if you want powder..

Canadian Rockies do pretty well In april usually. May and June are when they get the most precip of the year too, so up high gets fuckin plastered with pow. That being said this winter is fucked.

I would recommend Lake Louise and Sunshine (Alberta) based off personal experience as it always dumps in the last months of the season... but this year I'm not too sure it has been pretty dry on the snow front

BC in Canada is normally pretty good, but the best chance of getting power that late is to go to Europe.

Arapahoe Basin was getting some nice snowfall this April 2014. It does well late season.
