Who knows how long that process will be though.

High speed rail linking Winnipeg to cities like Regina, Saskatoon, Calgary, Edmonton, etc will never happen. There is simply not enough demand for it to be economically viable.
The only two lines currently being discussed, is the Alberta Corridor (Edmonton to Calgary, with a stop in Red Deer), and the line from Windsor to Quebec city, with stops in Toronto and Montreal.
