Why not just expand it to three lanes and prevent another Kenaston issue from arising? The bridge would help, yes, but wouldn't a road with much higher capacities also be the best solution as well?
You sound like you're talking about a boom/bust single-industry city like Detroit, yet you're talking about Winnipeg.

I'll entertain your ridiculous statement of a major economic collapse of Winnipeg to say that if ever that were to happen, Brandon is not going to be where the mass exodus of people will happen.
