Seems like you just picked an arbitrary and astronomical threshold, zoomed in somewhere that seemed vaguely close to Vancouver from the sky, and made your argument based on that. Parent was entirely correct in posing their question, because 45min from X is a giveaway.
Squamish is a wonderful small town up the coast; a haven for climbers and outdoors people. Not many people have the intention of moving there—it's quite isolated—but even still, that attached townhouse has more than doubled in value since it's last sale in 2007, probably the majority of which came in the last 5 years.
Is it adequate for you?
