The problem is that Regina is no longer in the planning stage, which Winnipeg seems to still be ironing out. The upgrades are already underway and our inland port has received a shot in the arm from CP rail as well as Loblaws who has committed to building a distribution centre, one million square feet in size and which will bring 1700 jobs to Regina.
Not saying both can't exist, but it seems as if Regina has already secured a number of tenants. Does that harm Winnipeg's chances? I don't know for certain, but it can't help.
