How to tell a B.C.-raised person on the internet: They call Toronto or Waterloo "east coast" ;) Waterloo is not a commuter school, a 45-minute one-way commute

Waterloo is not a commuter school, a 45-minute one-way commute would be really bad. Schools outside the GTA are similar, few people decide to do stuff like live with parents in Chatham and drive to a school in London but it's not common. GTA schools will have longer commutes because it's bigger, rent close to schools tends to be expensive, and transport sucks.
But that's not unlike Metro Vancouver vs rest of B.C. really. I doubt many people do 3 hour commutes to UVic.
