Forgive if I'm missing something, but your plan is to drive 1.5 total hours a day *from* a big city *to* a small town as a commute? Would it not be cheaper, much easier, and far less stressful just to live in the small town and drive to the city when you needed to?

I don't see any possible way that doesn't end up being less total driving time. And gas is not cheap over there, you're probably looking at hundred of dollars more in gas. This makes zero sense to me, and I say that as someone that lives right in downtown Calgary and far prefers an urban environment.
