While it is humerous to think Edmonton or Regina could be much more than regional hubs .. the facts are they have nowhere near the capacity to haddle the goods.
Winnipeg is light years ahead of any other city in Canada in inland transportation infrastructure and access to major markets. (ie: US, Mexico, China, Russia and Europe.) Close access (75KM) to the second busiest border crossing in western Canada.
Of course if you ignore these vital points .. I am sure there are tons of demand for market links from Edmonton to ... ahhh well Red Deer.. and no major US markets.
