What to people in BC do if they are travelling south after Oct 1 in their RV Do they do it without snow tires and hope not to get caught?
Lots of people in 'BC' don't even have snow tires, let alone chains. But, you are comparing apples to oranges. You are talking an RV...and you haven't said what kind. Trailer, camper, A, B or a C. I would venture that most heading south, don't carry anything more than a zest to get 'south' before the weather causes troubles. And many roads in BC do not require you have snows and or chains
Here is a link showing which highways require what.

If Sqaumish is your Christmas destination, you should know that that can be snow/ice country. If you are planning to use the RV, plan accordingly for heat and a dehumidifier. I don't think you are going to find an RV park up there for winter.
