I don't think highways should be a federal responsibility, though.
Actually there are 2 Trans Canada Highways in the west. The (original) TCH is #1 and runs Wpg-Regina-Calgary-Vancouver. #16 (aka Yellowhead route) has also been designated as the TCH. It runs Wpg-Saskatoon-Edmonton-Jasper, then splits and part of it continues on to Prince George/Prince Rupert and the other portion rejoins the #1 at Kamloops.
