It would actually be cool to see in the distant future if this results in a very different built form in places like Kamloops and Kelowna, with them being much denser than typical cities of 300,000 to 500,000.
Kelowna is making inroads in that respect. There are a lot of towers proposed or under construction downtown, as well as a whole bunch of low-rise apartments. Kamloops may move in that direction too, but it is not growing nearly as fast as it's southern neighbour.
