mid-30s hitting their peak earning years?

are you sure it's not in your mid 40's to 50's? the average mid-30s are probably still carrying student debt, about to purchase a first home, about to purchase a business/practice, just started a new family (mat/pat leave, working p/t to take care of kids < 5, etc).

in the big picture they're probably poorer than the university students eating kraft dinner even if they have more luxuries

I don't think you get it. Those families aren't going to benefit from a no-electricity, no running water, water-access only, cabin in Belcarra.
boohoo, i have to pay more taxes on a big lot sitting on a secluded island in the Indian Arm that rivals West Van/Bowen Isl

my point is, Belcarra is not rural BC

and that families making major sacrifices that are just doing slightly better than scraping by wouldn't mind getting a highly valuable property inherited to them and probably wouldn't complain to the news about it
