I was just looking at the E25 north of Genoa. Looks like an epic road, and it almost looks alien, like can you imagine a Canadian government ever commiting to build all that at once? But the return on investment there per vehicle km is probably much higher.
Ideally it’s a major thoroughfare plus at most 2 EDR’s. For example, TCH through Interior BC east of Salmon Arm is bad for the lack of EDR. As for the Prairies, time to take out some of the range roads which are in bad conditions anyway?

As for E25 north of Genoa, 6 lanes through the mountains? I wonder if EU helped Italy with that.
