Is there a reason provided why BC legislature is intra vires?

You can find the official explanation here: https://decisions.scc-csc.ca/scc-csc/scc-csc/en/item/5846/index.do

Basically:

• It does not relate to interprovincial trade and commerce
• The fact that CIC is a federally regulated company does not preclude it from provincial regulation
