Overall, given the climate, cities like Kamloops and Kelowna could be bigger.
Even looking at the interior rather than the coast, though you trade off the mild winters, some people might prefer the warmer summers (highs that reach the mid to high 20s, lows in the 10s).

The BC Interior (Central Okanagan) is growing at a decent clip. As long as prices remain reasonable, we could see a metropolitan area form in and around the Vernon-Kelowna-Penticton corridor. All are close to one another (Vernon to Penticton being the longest distance from each other at about an hour and a half), and the population, if you include all the smaller town like Summerland, Peachland, Enderby etc., is probably closing in on 350,000 - 400,000 people.
