Winter tires are mandatory in Québec, but starting in November. October sounds early, but since this is the Rockies, I suppose snow comes earlier at higher altitudes.
Yes, it's only the mountain highways. The highways around Vancouver don't require winter tires at any point in the year which is why you often hear of the city shutting down because of 1" of snow.
